nVidia Quadro 4000 For Mac - $999 - special order
The nVidia Quadro 4000 has Cuda technology that significantly speeds up rendering in supported applications, such as Premiere, After Effects, and Resolve. At this time, no Apple application can take advantage of the Cuda engine on the 4000. If you work primarily in Adobe video applications, or colour correct with Resolve, this card is worth the money. If you work primarily in Apple apps, then this card won't help in any way.
Minimum System Requirements:
- Mac OS X v10.6.5 or later
- Intel Xeon® processor or higher
- 2GB RAM or higher
- Dual slot with one (1) open PCI Express x16 slot
Supported Platforms
MacPro3,1, MacPro4,1, MacPro5,1, or later – Note: MacPro1,1 and MacPro2,1 are not compatible.
