PC Nvidia GPU’s ?
Has anyone tried using a non-mac Quadro as a GPU on a Mac resolve? I know you can’t boot with it, but will the system see it at all? I’m ordering an HP Z400 for a Pro Tools system (I know, don’t ask!!) that will have an Nvidia Quadro 2000 in it… which happens to have 192 CUDA cores. I think for skips and giggles I’m going to pop it into my Mac Resolve and see what happens.
Any thoughts?

If apple didn’t make video drivers for your specific card, you’re outta luck

That is more or less true…. sort of.
Except some cards that are PC only have been “flashed” so that they can be used on a Mac. Even ones that were never intended for mac… such as some of the GTX cards. I actually have a GTX285 card that was originally a PC card. If you “look” around on blogs you will find some who have gotten GTX470 & GTX480 cards to work under OSX. There were never any “mac” drivers written for these cards. I was just wondering if anyone had done this with any of the other Quadro cards.
