MP 7,1 MacPro7,1 with W6800

Hello,

Any user with MacPro7,1 with W6800? I'm experiencing some problems. Could anyone provide their IOReg Dump?

What problems are you having?

What problems are you having?

Graphics stutter. Maybe my VBIOS or some setting is wrong.

Gents, I'm not as techy as I used to be - any harm in providing this?

W6800 (PCI), or W6800X (MPX)?

I don't think so. But its your choice.

W6800 (PCI), or W6800X (MPX)?

W6800 PCIe. @Flint Ironstag has MPX i guess.

Yeah, I can't recall anyone here who had the standard AMD branded W6800 in a 7,1. There was one guy who'd used one in a 5,1, but AMD were very specific about their branded card being unsupported on macOS, that the Apple MPX card was their "solution for Mac users".

Mine are the MPX (2x Duo and 1x non Duo versions) so can’t help you. AFAIK the normal one should just work in the 7,1.

Provided it is powered properly. The 5,1 was a different matter and needed special things done to make it work in that.
