Does anyone know a stable safe method to flash a GTX 780Ti?
I have a GT120 as my boot screen GPU and the 780 as the card for AE etc.
System spec:
Mac Pro 2012 5.1 6 3.03Ghz
OS Yosemite
64 gig RAM

I haven't delved into flashing before so consider me a total noob when explaining.

Is this card better than the gtx 680 in terms of CUDA for Premiere? I'm debating between the two.
 
I don't think anyone can flash that particular card. I don't think even MVC offers service for it.
I think he doesn't sell that card because it needs 6+8 power plugs and will shutdown macpro under load without additional psu. He can flash it tho.
 
There is no public Mac rom for Reference GTX 780?

Nope. Given the work that MVC puts into flashing these cards I don't blame him for keeping it private to make some cashola. It's not just a case of flashing the ROM, sometimes additional soldering work is required.

Stock flash chip doesn't have enough free space for additional EFI bios. MVC replace it with different.
Also after that you can't read/write bios of this card with standard software.
