Great... but will it blend?
is it better then the mbp's 8600? im still waiting for the 9 series mac
You know, I think I read once that having over sixteen cores doesn't help anything.
Anyway, it'd be awesome if SLI and CrossFire were supported in OS X.
HI Guys...
I have last years Mac Pro (quad core, July 2007). When I ordered, there was a bit of a bungle with the order and I ended up with 3 x standard graphic card when I wanted the ATI option.
I have been thinking of getting that old ATI card ... and now this new one is out.
Just to make sure (I don't know much about how these cards compare)... is this new card better than the older card? I am guessing it is - just want to make sure!
I use the mac pro for print design work - and occasionally for video work.
Thanks in advance for all the advice

Yes it will.
How sure are you? Do you have a source?
The release has been anticipated and is expected to give unrivaled Core Image processing power for its price class, largely confirmed by an early review by Xlr8yourmac.com. Unlike the NVIDIA 8800 GT which had two separate models for older and newer Mac Pros, the Radeon HD 3870 Mac and PC Edition will work in any Mac Pro.
The Radeon 3870 works in both first generation Mac Pros from 2006/2007, as well as the second generation Mac Pros introduced in early 2008.
But... but... but, I just got the 8800 GT. Dang... sucks to be me![]()

Go back to digg.com. Your stupid memes have no place here.
The 1900XT looks like an Apple product and not something AMD released.Is apple going to pull the 1900XT off its shelves? AMD suggested retail price is 219. The 1900XT is *STILL* selling for $399.
For $219 ill take a 3870.....but with apple always charging a ridiculous price premium, im a bit uneasy.......unless of course, and hopefully, apple is not the one selling these?

AMD lists the ATI Radeon HD 3870 Mac & PC Edition on their own site, so I would assume the card will be sold like the old ATI X800XT that you could buy from pretty much any ATI reseller. Unless something has changed, you won't be restricted to buying this from Apple. In fact, if it's like the ATI X800XT was, I don't think you'll even have a Build To Order option from Apple-you'll only be able to get it aftermarket.
Yeah, I thought this last gen crap was over when they switched to x86.
Nvidia does have the 8800Ultra and the whole 9-series to smoke ATi's offerings. It's time these are made available... but god forbid we get any options in the graphics card department.![]()
We are about to plunk down for a new mac pro FCP station at work. Would we be better off w/the x1900, the HD3870, or is there a replacement for the x1900 in the $400 range that would be better?
