hi,

sorry if this is in the wrong forum but it looks like the best bet... anyway, here's the situation & questions


We have a new mac pro with a 5770 card. Many issues... First is it will only run 32 not 64 bit and even then the LFG input & Intentsity Pro cards can bring the os down when you enable it with various other random crashes, however once its running its solid. We have 2 THTG Dvi cards on the outputs and using the MDP - DVI adaptor the only resolution is 2400 / 600, whereas the dual link Dvi output works fine. However you can only use 2 out of 3 of the outputs at any time. I'm told that if we buy the Apple active MDP - DVI it will all work a treat giving 3 dual link DVI outs , but I'd be happy with 2.

Questions basically are...


Will apple fix the 5770 drivers anytime soon ? even then its going to need another adaptor if not 2 to work properly so is there any point waiting?


Does anyone any experience of the MDP Active DVI adaptor ?


Would the sensible move be to junk it for a GTX285 ?


Whats stopping Catalyst / Lfg whatever working in 64 bit and how likely is a fix for that?


Advice much apprecciated!
