Cheapest Mac Pro Video Card?

[noiceT]

I would return the card, and just get an xfx 4870 1GB.

It is been confirmed many times to work, and the flashing process is stupid easy.

Also, why was a Sapphire recommended?? Isn't the XFX the only one to support dual displays?

So, I booted into a DOS environment, and ran ATIFlash on the firmware I got from netkas.

Low and behold... it flashed successfully!

So I rebooted my computer, only to find another problem.

The endless startup chime.

It goes "BAHH BAHH BAHH BAHH BAHH BAHH..." into infinity now, if I boot it up with the card in it.

Any ideas? I used the second firmware provided at https://forums.macrumors.com/posts/7271105/

EDIT: Ugh, Safari cache screwed me up. I wish I could delete this post.
