Thank you alvanh!
If you mean 10.9 osx, I cannot use on macpro 2.1.
About cards: you mean 690 inside the Mac and Titan inside the expansion box? Which one do you suggest?
I could put the Titan inside, and give it external power...
Thank you again.

Yes on OS 10.9 you have all the titan's graphic card suported.
The Titan is better , it has 6G memory.
In your mac you can't have only the GUI card bcse Octane, Davinci don't like at all that the GUI card is runing to compute.
So 1 card in mac pro to GUI only and an external card in a box to calculate.

If you are interested I have a Netstore NA211A http://www.netstor.com.tw/_03/03_02.php?OTc= available (because I have the new mac pro 2013) I've bought it 3 Weeks ago. It's in the box.
Contact me in PM if you re interested

Bye

You can install mavericks on MacPro 2.1

You'll just have to make some hacks to the installation files.

Thank you again, alvanh...
1) I'm unable to write you over PM, maybe because I'm still a demo user... but I'd like to do. So, if you can see my email, please, write to me.
2) the problem is that I cannot install 10.9, because the too much late Mac Pro version 2.1, but I'd like to do somethings, before to buy a PC.
Thank you

If you can't install 10.9 I'm afraid you can't run GTX 680 or Titan. I did the test with 10.8 and the Graphic card wasn't recognize
