Hi guys.
Just wondering if it's possible to use a graphics card from a Mac with a pc? Specifically, the card I'm talking about is from an early 2008 Mac Pro, a Radeon X2600. A friend of mine who owns the Mac (dual quad-core cpu's, the smarmy git) is looking to upgrade, and I thought that the card might be a good temporary solution until I can get a better card (it's going to my brother's pc). And while we're on the subject, said friend of mine is looking to get a new graphics card. He's looking at the 4870 that's just become available at the Apple store, but it's very expensive, especially compared to the pc versions.
He was wondering if it's possible that pc cards will work with his Mac Pro? I mean, I'm not really familiar with Mac's (and he's not really interested in the hardware) but they're based on Intel's S775 now, aren't they? They use PCI-Express too, don't they? And if not, are there any other online stores that will sell the Mac versions cheaper than Apple? Thanks guys.
...and I thought of how all those people died, and what a good death that is. That nobody can blame you for it, because everyone else died along with you, and it is the fault of none, save those who did the killing.
