MP 7,1 Nvidia’s RTX 3090/ 4090/ A6000/ 6000 Ada in a Mac Pro (2019)

Has anyone actually done this? Tips and tricks please! Cutting up a $12k computer is very scary.
I'm just curious to know if the Mac Pro can power this beast. If it works I will adopt this config. 2XRTX3090 blower edition.

fantastic l'm very interested to know how it will be inside and to compare bench in Flight Simulator
Mac Proc have 1280 W power supply

For people putting in GPUs: have you guys experienced gpu sag? i noticed when putting in a titan rtx, the card moves a little in the slot? (perpendicular to the plane of the board)
The FE RTX 3090 card doesn't fit, but I did find a few 3rd party cards under 310mm in length. Gigabyte has more cards, but they haven't posted dimensions for some of them yet.
So which manufacturer's model would be best to harmonize with the thermal concept of the MP?
The Palit Gaming Pro?

I would say a blower design would be the best, right? So the Gigabyte one looks quite interesting to me, and looks like it would fit into the case without cutting anything.
The leaked Ampere Quadro RTX card looks like it might work well with the Mac Pro thermal design. I've never seen a blower card that draws air from both sides before.
If only Apple and Nvidia could work together again...

I'm considering a 3080... so only the Founders Edition has a blower fan design?
Do you have any thermal problems? Or noisy fans?
I'm in Indonesia, it priced $1000 when I bought it 😂
So far until now there is no problem whatsoever, even I overclocked the card and test using game(s) and benchmark apps. I set the fans to at least 50% that's keep my card cool and still quiet while using it
I switched from the msi card to the founders addition. Much cleaner look and a better fit in the Mac Pro
Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
How does the card perform? Any hiccups? Did it fit without any mods? Noise? Does increase the internal case temp significantly?
I'm I correct that you have your card in PCI-E slot 5 and Sonnet in slot 3? What's in slot 4?
Thanks again

I don't know. If I have to cut something away from Mac Pro to run Nvidia + Windows 10, I'd rather use Mac Pro as a sole Mac OS machine while building wholly a new PC for Nvidia.
It's great that you guys are working to put Nvidia in Mac Pro, but it being non AMD and probably never run in Mac OS, why try so hard to run through windows...
Of course, to some people, having one machine is must.. but I can't stop thinking all this try is creating more problem to meet that one requirement.
