Hey, This thread just kind of clocked in my head. I'm looking to get a Mac Pro with the 5870 to run as a graphics system for broadcasting.
I'm worried about forking out for a high end graphics card (future proofing, and I don't trust my composing) if it's going to have problems. Could someone please explain the problems they have with these cards, and are there any replacement cards that can be used in Mac Pro's.
