    I have a question. I have a mac pro mid 2007. I read the ati radeon 5870 upgrade kit will work. my video card is fried will it automatically recognize the new card and boot up fine?

    My 2009 automatically recognized the 5870 and booted without trouble.

    I can't imagine a reason your 2007 would be any different.

    I think you'll need the Mac Pro Graphics Update installed before you do it.

    Good luck!!!

    Make sure you have 10.6.5 installed.
