Does anyone have an R9 380 working on their Mac Pro (4,1 or 5,1)? Just trying to decide if the wealth of experience here given how many R9 280's seem to have been installed is worth buying what may be an older card inside?
This is NOT so much a matter of buying advice as it is a matter of finding out if the 380 can be made to work on the Mac Pro and (given the resistor removal etc ) if such work has been done for the 380 as well. The appeal for me is that they seem identical except for more memory and less power draw. Pricewise, the 380 is the same as 280x but 60 dollars more or less than the regular 280.
Resistors, cables needed?
Already in, 4 HD, 1 SSD not PCIe but may move it to one of those adaptors in the future, and GT120
