Hi there!

I have my wonderful mac pro 2.1, that i used to pimp out in the past, but now is the time for the GPU. I cought r9 270X from gigabyte very cheaply and i wanted to use it in my mac. But after boot it shows black screen and the cpu a and cpu b fail diodes are on. I tried booting to windows but, after driver install it acts exacly the same. I only found guys who tried to install r9 280x card, but no one with mine model. I think its becouse drivers, efi, idk really. Please help, thanks!

Previously it had hd5770 that works perfect, even now
