    ATI Radeon HD 5770
    Are there any major issues in using this card with an MacPro 4.1? My church bought a one with a NVidia card last year, and it has been giving us fits….. Jerky display both on the desktop and to the projectors. We need to replace the card and research has shown us that this should be a good replacement. Comments?

    We just put one in a 2008 mac pro. Works fine. Also have one in our 2010 mac pro, also not a problem. Initially there were some issues with it when the pro was brand new, but those all went away over time, perhaps with OSX software updates.

    In retrospect, I wonder if we should have spent $500 more on an NVidia 4000 card so we could get Mercury playback goodness.
