Hi All,
Anybody know if it's possible to flash an Nvidia 8800 GS 384mb video card by TNT for a Mac Pro? If so, could you please provide a link to a ROM. I have Zeus but cannot find a suitable ROM to flash it with. Thank you very much for any help you might provide. It would sicken me to have to spend $300 for a video card that costs $60 in the peecee world.

And you won't. Since there was never a 8800GS for Mac with 384 Megs, there isn't a ROM for one.


The 8800GT with 512 Megs is flashable, (G92 based) but you need to have a 128K EEPROM chip on it.
