1. Re: Which Graphics card for OpenGL 3D Support? (Mac)
Mylenium Oct 6, 2012 2:11 AM (in response to monmart)What version of OSX? Might simply be an issue with a too old version of that and no newer drivers being avialable... If so, getting a different card wouldn't resolve your issue, either.

2. Re: Which Graphics card for OpenGL 3D Support? (Mac)
monmart Oct 6, 2012 7:53 AM (in response to Mylenium)I'm running 10.8.2. After doing the recent upgrade with Apple the 3D features do not show anymore.
I was told the Radeon 6870 and GTX570 will work on my machine with Snow Leopard as an upgrade. But will they work with the 3D engine.
Also my VRAM shows maxed out to 173 in PS prefrences. But my card has 256?

SG... Oct 9, 2012 10:59 AM (in response to monmart)Hi,
What version of Ps Extended do you have or wish to use? For Ps CS6 Extended the minimum GPU VRAM requirement is 512MB, which explains greyed out menu items if you're running CS6.
Recommended Ps CS6 Extended GPU VRAM is 1GB or greater. You'll also benefit buying as much RAM as you can afford.
Both of those cards should work with the CS6 3D features. However, you may want to look at newer cards from nVidia and ATI to see if they also work with the '08 MacPro running 10.8.2.
regards,
steve
