OSX 64bit version: is it possible to have an update?

To my knowledge, Cuda for OSX is now at 64bit, so I'd like ask if there will be soon an Octane 64bit version for OSX: it's so easy today to break the 2GB barrier when using lot of models and rendering. IMO this would be a top priority for Octane.
Thanks.

ciao beppe, hai lo stesso identico Mac Pro di me. saluti

Where did you get the GTX560ti for the Mac Pro? Is it simple to install or you need some tweaking/extra cables?

I'd say you'd at least need a power cable to go from the Motherboard to the GTX card. I bought some on ebay for cheap. they are 6pin mini-PCIe to PCIe power adapters.

Sorry for not being more precise: actually my "Mmmmmhhhhhhhhh... this must be a very difficult question to answer..." was directed to Refractive Software about the initial question "OSX 64bit version: is it possible to have an update?".
Shame we Mac users do not have a 64bit version yet and, what I dislike most, a total lack of answers.

Hi papillon,
unfortunately the answer is arrived but it's not promising:
