Re: [apple scitech] NVIDIA TESLA GPU's in a Mac?



Hi,

I have posted some related questions months ago ... what I gathered back
then is that integration of Nvidia cards with Mac OS X is not possible
because of the need of Apple machines for EFI support rather than BIOS.
Not that I understand this ... just what I gathered.

When Apple hardware includes Nvidia graphics, it is an "Apple version" of
the hardware, a standard card won't work, because of the missing EFI support.


If you find out more, I'd be happy to know about it!

Were you thinking of something like an Xserve with Teslas?
