Have a MP 2008 with an apple edition 4870 that looks like it bit the dust. Grey blocks on start up, no clear pic. Need a new card. 4870 met my needs as I mainly console game.
I was looking to stay around $150 as the machine isn't worth much anyways and I don't really game on the Mac Pro except casually. Any recommendations? It is hooked up to a 30" Apple Cinema Display. I did read through a lot of the graphics card threads and searched, but seem all geared towards high end and flashing, which I don't have Windows to perform. Prefer plug and play.
I was thinking of the apple 5770 as they are $125ish on eBay. I know its old, but if the 4870 worked.....unless someone has a recommendation.
Appreciate your time and recommendations.
