Hello:

I just bought your software during the sale— thanks! I have 2 machines at work, will there be a big performance difference between the 2: A) mac pro 8 core with geforce GT120 and B) mac pro 8 core geforce 8800GT. Both machines have 10 gigs of ram.

Is there a much better card available for a mac?

Also, can I change the install to a new machine in the future?

Thanks,

Gary

You will probably get better performance out of the 8800gt with its 112 cores vs. the 32 of the gt120. There is a gtx285 for mac that will be worlds better. I wish they'd release a gtx400 series for mac.
System 1: EVGA gtx470 1280Mb and MSI gtx470 1280 in Cubix Xpander for Octane, AMD 945, 4Gb Ram
All systems are at stock speeds and settings.
