    Flashing Sapphire HD 7950 Boost to Mac Edition

    Thanks for your help. Could you suggest where I might find "a stock bios to flash" And what app could I use to backup my current bios? Thanks for your help and understanding. This would be my first time attempting this. I'm going to take it slowly. -emojo5

    Flashing Sapphire HD 7950 Boost to Mac Edition

    Well. I needed to put this project on hold for awhile during the madness of the last year. Finally getting back to it. I finally was able to borrow a friends PC to check out what is on this video card. Attached is what I found. Any suggestions about flashing this card would be greatly...

    Flashing Sapphire HD 7950 Boost to Mac Edition

    Thanks Impero. I found the GPU-Z app (v2.43.0). Now I need to get help from a friend to use his PC to run it. Question. Can I run Boot camp on my Mac Pro and access GPU-x that way or is it better to just use a PC for this? Thanks so much to everyone who helped me with these questions. -emojo5

    So the card as purchased, does work, its just that it doesn't have the Mac boot screen at startup, and as stated in my first post, has a black screen at startup, and takes about 10-15 minutes to come up. Like it's in some kind of sleep mode. Sorry but I'm not as versed in this as your guys...

    Flashing Sapphire HD 7950 Boost to Mac Edition

    Hi Impero. Thanks for responding. I post posted my first query back in February. No one asked a thing about it. Just wondering if I didn't provide enough info about my situation or something like that. I do appreciate your response. Here are a few additional photos of the card in question, just...

    Flashing Sapphire HD 7950 Boost to Mac Edition

    Hi. My name is Ed, and I'm new here. I was hoping to ask for some help with a video card I'm having issues with. I have a AMD Radeon HD 7950 card that I bought off ebay years ago. It was supposedly flashed for use on my Mac Pro 5,1 2010 box. It never ran perfectly. When I would start up my...
