    GTX 285 in 10.5.8

    I tried GTX285 for my 2008 8core

    I could not boot it stopped with reboot message..

    Do I need special driver? or new OS?

    and
    I received my new 4core mac with 5870.

    Hi Monty

    According to Nvidia:

    The model identifier should be Mac Pro 3,1 or 4,1 , or later
    (NOTE : Mac Pro 1,1 or 2,1 is not compatible)

    There is a driver update available:
    http://www.nvidia.com/object/geforce...03-driver.html

    The Nvidia 8800GT was the preferred card for the 2008 MacPro
    GTX285 was an option for 2009/2010 MacPro
    Will check it in a 2008 MacPro here and confirm.
