## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ AS accurately described by seller & performed as expected.
*by P***S on February 26, 2025*

Arrived as described, in excellent condition, packed well. Installed & working as expected. Good transaction.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Saved my Mac. Easy install, works great.
*by F***Y on November 13, 2016*

This saved (resurrected, actually) my trusty old MacPro4,1. One day my Mac died. Would not boot at all - just very loud fan noise. On a hunch that it could be the video card, I ordered one of these. Original video card was the same model but with less VRAM. Crossed my fingers and ordered it. Package arrived quickly (a day ahead of estimate), was very well packaged and included basic instructions. Replacement was super easy (the old MacPro design is wonderful, makes it easy to swap most components). Started up the Mac and it booted perfectly. Have been using it for 2 weeks since, not the slightest hiccup, it works fine. Driving two 27" 1920x1080 monitors. Works great, I'm a happy camper. Would buy again from these guys.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Worked fine, but not worth it for photos
*by I***K on January 14, 2019*

I bought this card for an old Mac Pro 2007 2.1 8-core (found on Craigslist for $100) with Mac OSX 10.6.8 to replace a GeForce card with 256MB GDDR3 RAM that came with the computer. The card I received actually registered 1GB GDDR5 RAM, not 512MB. I used it with Photoshop CS5 and Canon and Fuji raw processing programs primarily. While it did speed up the display of photos on the screen and scrolling within a photo in Photoshop became very smooth, it was not as great of a difference as I hoped it would be. Perhaps more 3D-intensive applications will benefit more from this card.After a month, the computer I bought this for gave up the ghost and I sold it for parts. This graphics card I sold later - that took months, and I was lucky to sell it for more than a third of what they sell it for here. I'm not sure it would have been worth it even in the long run to have bought this card.
