I know that there are a number of posts about this; but I haven't seen one that relates to my video card.

I have recently acquired a 5,1 Mac Pro with a EVGA 1070 SC graphics card.

Is anyone able to give me directions on how I flash the card so that I can see the boot up screen?

Its a real pain when using recovery mode, or even trying to upgrade the OS.

Thanks in advance.

considering he still did not sue me i am the other way available, but i have an EFI also for the 1070 Ti unlike them, and a Volta card on order ;)

Generally you will not be able to flash Nvidia yourself or for free; if you want to keep your card have fun spending 100% of its value on flashing + shipping, buying a flashed 980/980Ti on ebay is by far cheaper for same/more power.

i just live with no boot display, with an SSD it never bothered me over the gain of a newer gpu.
