Hi everyone,
I have a couple of cMP 5,1 (technically one is a 2009 flashed from 4,1 with Dual CPUs + a 2012 with Single CPU). Both are running OLCP 1.4.3. With OLCP, I'm able to run both with Monterey. I've been thinking about upgrading the WiFi/CPU on both. Currently, I am using the...

Hey all!
Long time Apple user, first time Mac Pro tinkerer.
I have a 2012 Mac Pro with the ATI Radeon graphics card.
I'm tinkering around with the computer, and a co-worker brought in a GeForce RTX 480.
Would this graphics card work?
Thanks in advance!

Hi all,
I have a 2012 Mac Pro which I bought without any hard drive in it. I thought this would be no issue, just boot from a USB installer and install onto a new drive. However, no boot commands seem to work at all. Option doesn't bring up boot options, CMD, Option, P & R does nothing. I have...
