  • Mac Pro CUDA Rendering Monster!

    The EVGA GTX 580 Classified Extreme Overclock w/ 3Gb VRAM is one absolute monster of a video card. It is not for the faint of heart, however... This card was installed and tested in an 8-core dual Xeon Mac Pro 2,1 w/ 32Gb RAM, 120Gb SSD, 1Tb HD, and a Corsair FS600 aux psu mounted in the #3 drive bay sled. This allows for the possibility to test all of the power hungry cards like this GTX 580, the GTX 590, or even the crazy Titan-Z in this beautiful silver box! In fact, the specs for the EVGA GTX 580 Classified call for a power draw of 570W under full load at stock speeds; and get this, up to 1,000W at Extreme Overclock!! I won't be doing any extreme overclock in the Mac Pro, as the PCIE bus itself supplies some power to the card through electrical traces on the motherboard; we wouldn't want to melt those babies! The Mac Pro worked reliably with the card installed and running under OSX 10.7.5 Lion, as well as after the upgrade to OSX 10.11.6 El Capitan; although as with all non-Apple-efi, non-flashed video cards, there is no startup boot screen. What this means, is that for people who need to use Boot Camp, switching OS at startup is somewhat problematic. This is not a problem for me, however; as I run pure mac all the time, and cold start to boot screen w/ El Capitan is 14 seconds. ArchiCAD 19 and 20 absolutely fly with this card! OpenGL must be heavily optimized now for this older Fermi technology which drives all of the GTX 500 series cards, and ArchiCAD itself is constantly rebuilding the 3D scene in the background, while changes are being made to the drawings in 2D layout, section, and elevation windows. There is almost no delay when working in 2D and 3D simultaneously, even with very large projects like oil fields or military bases. Now, when designing typical projects like a single-family residence in ArchiCAD 20, this 1st gen mac system is for all practical purposes, instantaneous. Another very important feature on these cards is their substantial CUDA performance. CUDA has been around for awhile on the mac, but in my experience, has really come into its own in the last couple of years. Blender, one of the brightest full-spectrum 3D design, modeling, animation, motion-tracking, and compositing (I'm in over my head here) Mac-Windows-Linux applications in the universe is also one of the premier unbiased CUDA GPU renderers available at any price... AND IT'S FREE! I ran tests on all of the RenderStreet scenes and discovered that the GTX 580 Classified 3Gb is still a wonderfully capable and creative CUDA real-time rendering asset for any Studio. In fact, it worked so well, that I set up another 1st gen Mac Pro 1,1 with the same FS600 aux psu, but mounted this one in the upper optical bay, which leaves the lower bay available for the CD/DVD RW. This setup allows the installation of two (!) GTX 580 cards in the 1st gen Mac Pro, and in that case I opted for twin MSI GTX 580 Twin Frozr Lightnings! Heavy testing revealed that any two GTX 580 cards can GPU render any scene with CUDA as fast as a GTX 980 or even a Titan X, as long as it will fit in memory! This is a stunning result, and my research has revealed that the CUDA cores on the GTX 500 series cards work about twice as hard as the CUDA cores on other series. It is fun to watch the grin on your friend's faces as a 10 year old Mac Pro with two shiny GTX 580s eat their brand new i7-4770 w/ a GTX 970 for lunch!! Conclusion: For everyday work and typical 3D OpenGL and CUDA rendering projects on any classic Mac Pro, you won't be disappointed with any of the GTX 500 series Fermi cards! Just be sure you get the correct Nvidia drivers for your OS, settle on any card with 2Gb or more VRAM, and use a nice small form factor aux psu like the Corsair FS600 if needed. The two cards that work fine in the Mac Pro without an aux psu are the GTX 560 2Gb and the GTX 570 2.5Gb; any cards with one or two 6-pin power inputs will work. By contrast, the EVGA GTX 580 Classified Extreme Overclock reviewed here needs two 8-pin and a 6-pin! Now, put that beast to work!

  • Perfect

    I'm not a gamer, but needed a card to drive 2 hi-def 27" DVI-D displays. This card does a GREAT job without even breaking a sweat!! It is probably overkill, but I'm more than satisfied.

  • Awesome card!

    I installed this card as soon as I got it. I'm planning on running a 3 way sli on my pc.The card is still running with no problems.
