	Cards are Used and usually have minor nicks or scratches. Over all look fairly new, and I generally do a bit of touch-up work on the scratches when possible. Other than Heatsink Covers, the Upper-Pictured and Lower-Pictured cards are the same; but if you have a preference, let me know and i'll see if I've got the one You prefer.

nVidia cards don't have combination EFI-32/EFI-64 boot firmware. So the cards are EITHER EFI32, for 1st Gen Mac-Pro (2006-2007), Model Identifiers: MacPro1,1 or MacPro2,1: OR EFI64, for 2nd Gen machines with Model Identifiers: MacPro3,1 2008 or newer. NEITHER EFI version will work in PCIE based PowerMac G5s Built in Late 2005.

These are a nice inexpensive upgrade from the stock 7300 in the early mac pros, while the SC version is even a bit of an upgrade from the stock Apple 8800 GT cards. They have 2 Dual-Link dvi ports that Support HDMI or VGA monitors (thru use of DVI to HDMI adapters/cables).

If the stock speed cards pass basic Not-DOA testing, they're cleaned, and then tested in windows with ATITool Artifact testing for minimum of 24 hours. IF they pass this testing, they're Re-Programmed with Mac Compatible Firmware running them at stock speeds of 600MHz/GPU, 1500MHz/Shader and 900MHz/VRAM, then burn-in tested in macs for a 1 week minimum.

The SuperClocked cards come clocked for windows at 650MHz/GPU, 1620MHz/Shader and 950MHz/VRAM; compared to the NON SC (and Apple EOM) versions of the card. If SC cards pass basic Not-DOA testing, they're cleaned, and then tested in windows with ATITool Artifact testing for minimum of 24 hours. Many SC cards DO NOT pass the minimum 24 hour ATITool artifact testing; the ones that do are Re-Programmed with Mac Compatible Firmware running them at SC speeds, then burn-in tested in macs for the 1 week minimum. If SC cards don't pass 24 hour ATITool testing, or the minimum 1 week mac testing at SC speeds, then they're Re-Programmed with Mac Compatible Firmware running them at Stock/Apple speeds, and tested in mac for minimum 1 week.

Since the typical Wintel Bios oriented MotherBoard simply Ignores the Mac-Pro EFI code in the firmware, the cards will boot normally to Windows in these types of PCs. The cards will also boot into Windows in a Mac-Pro, as well as booting into OSX in 1st Gen Mac Pros.

After Conversion to Mac, the Cards are Burn-In Tested for Minimum of 1 WEEK, 2 days in Windows using ATITool FurMark Playing VLC Videos etc.. 5 Days in OSX 10.5.8, 10.6.8 and 10.7.2 with GLView, SmallUXGPU, DVD player, VLC, and Unreal Bots Doing Endless Death-Match.

DO NOT USE THIS CARD WITHOUT INSTALLING THE POWER CABLE!
These cards need Lots of Power, You MUST remember to connect the Mini-PCIe to PCIe power cable(s) between the motherboard and the card. Apple made a PDF file on how to do this for the Ati X1900 Cards which i've renamed MacPro_PCIe_Power.pdf. and it can be found in the utilities and info area. Failure to hook up the PCIe power cable may damage the video card, and possibly even hurt your Mac as the card may try and draw the needed power thru the PCIe slot, which isn't built to deliver that kinda of power.

All Items are shipped via the US Postal Service. The Mail Carrier stops by Week Day Mornings (Not Sundays/Holidays), so I can just leave things downstairs for Daily Pickup. The post office only insures Items (NOT including the postage). This results in them effectively Being Paid to loose/damage an item. Since it seems terribly unethical/unfair that they should be paid for loosing/damaging an item, insured items are "Marked-Up" enough to cover the postage fees, so that if they do Loose/Smash something, it is insured for the Full Amount.

For USPS Shipping US Military Bases & Protectorates, Guam, Puerto-Rico, American Samoa, Micronesia, Palau and (US Virgin, Marshal & Northern Mariana Islands) are All Considered Part Of the US.

Given all the time spent pre-testing video cards in Windows, converting them, then extensively testing in Macs, it seems counter productive to pack them poorly so they're easily damaged in shipping. The cards are put in anti-static bags, wrapped in bubblewrap, protected by a CardBoard and Rigid Foam Sleeve which is Suspended in Foam Peanuts inside an outer box that's reinforced with rigid foam (so it 's hard to crush). The outer box is 12in Long by 8in Wide and 5in Tall. This uses about $4 in materials, and takes around 25 minutes to pack a card. Priority Mail w Delivery Confirmation, Insurance and packing materials is about $15-16. This may seem like overkill, but it greatly decreases the chances of you getting a damaged card, which would not only be frustrating for you, but a complete waste of all the time/$ I put into making sure you got a rock solid Mac video card.

PayPal Addresses & BUGs

PayPal, Payments are ONLY Accepted if transaction is fully eligible for Seller Protection. This SHOULD mean the Buyers shipping address must be PayPal CONFIRMED. HOWEVER a Recent PayPal Bug/Error has been making it so many payments made with Cash-In/Credit-Card Linked-To PayPal Account show-up as "Not Eligible" for Seller Protection. If payment Cred-Card based it MAY show up properly, and if Bank-Account based it USUALLY shows up properly. A way around This-Bug is to Select that you DO NOT HAVE a PayPal account at checkout, then you MUST give them a Credit-Card and an email address that ARE NOT associated with Your PayPal account. AND the shipping address you provide MUST match the billing address on the credit card. If either (email or cred card) is associated with a PayPal account they will refuse to process the transaction saying you must login to your PayPal Account. If you login to paypal, they will then process the payment sending me an email that says the transaction is "Not Eligible" for seller protection.

I Do Not Sell or Ship in Washington State, and don't want to process refunds when folks from Washington place orders. People often Have/Leave Old/Out-of-Date/Incorrect Shipping Info in PayPal, which causes problems when things get Lost in the Mail. Sometimes People from other countries use Friends/Relatives address in the US so they have PayPal Confirmed shipping info. Standard PayPal settings can't deal with any of these things. Because of this, ALL Payments are put on Hold/Review, so I can Verify that Buyers are NOT in Washington, The shipping info is Good/Current, and hopefully avoid any other problems/issues/questions by communicating BEFORE Accepting Payment.

I would like to put a contact link in here, but don't want the spam-bots getting info off web pages, and flooding my in-box with garbage. So You'll have to do a bit of cut/paste, sorry for the trouble. Name is christian_g then there is that little round symbol with the "a" inside, and provider is fastmail. net (remove the space before net).

INCLUDES Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation and Insurance (Canada Adds $17-23; depending on insurance).

(Canadian Buyers Please eMail Me for shipping quote on Sub Close-To $100 Items.)
(Shipping with tracking to Canada is about $33-$35 minus any "Included" US-Shipping)

PLEASE DO NOT Click Buy-Now if You are in WA; I DO NOT Sell or Ship Within Washington State.

I'm REALLY busy working on the items I sell. I do the most thorough testing and best packing reasonably possible to make sure You get a great product. Taking time from what's important to the end result, in order to work as an unpaid Tax Collector seems counter-productive. Don't get me wrong, I can't think of anyplace I would rather live, but spending time working on the actual business seems more reasonable than spending it filling out complicated forms. With this in mind, I WILL-NOT sell or ship anything in Washington. The paperwork is much less time consuming if it's mostly a bunch of zeros.
