Hello All,
I was searching this forum for GTX 295, but I didn't find what I was looking for, it's a pretty new card so no surprise there. I did find a similar topic about the 4870X2 from a couple of months ago, but I'm not 100% clear if the same applies to this card. If this has already been covered in detail, I apologize, and please point me in the right direction:
I have an early 2008 2.8Ghz, and Vista64 is running great on a separate hd (Samsung Spinpoint F1). I'd like to upgrade to a GTX 295 to use with Vista, and still be able to use OSX. I just want to make sure I have my facts straight. I ordered one of these cables from ATI a while ago, is that what I need to get this up and running? And is there an easy way to keep the 8800GT as well to run Mac OSX (without using the optical drive power) or do I need to replace it with a 2600XT for this setup to work? I'd hate to get rid of the 8800GT if all I need is another cable (or two) to get both cards working.
Thanks in advance for any advice. Thoughts?
