If possible, could someone who has the CUDA drivers installed post screenshots of the CUDA-Z window showing the "Core" and "Memory" sections for iMacs with either the GTX 675MX or 680MX fitted, please? I'm interested in comparing the specs with the GTX 670 I have in my Mac Pro.

The card performs admirably in all applications except Civ 5 and Aspyr support are particularly arrogant about my problem, waving the "unsupported" card like crazy. I understand one of these cards is really a downclocked GTX 670 desktop chipset and I'd like to try editing my BIOS ROM to emulate it precisely.

Ta!

Hi
this was already in this topic:

GTX675MX is actualy GTX680 with higher memory clock so I prefer to choose 675 :)

Why did you post this?

Things to note:

  1. The question has already been answered.
  2. You have posted a link to exactly the same thread as the first response.
  3. You are completely wrong. The GTX 680 has 8 multiprocessors with 1536 CUDA cores, while the GTX 675MX (in common with the GTX 670) has only 7 multiprocessors with 1536 CUDA cores.

1 and 2 my bad
3 I thought you compare mobile chips as long as iMacs have mobile chips in every generation not the typical desktop versions. I really don't know the difference especially when the screens and confirmation in that topic are from me :) but if you insist...my bad :)

I did comment in your other thread, but I suppose i'll do it again. No matter how much you want 1 graphics card to be another it's not happening. The better card is the GTX 680MX.
