The 8800 GT provided enough power to run Steam games, and also improved screen redraws for everyday work, including my light-duty work in Photoshop and InDesign. The card that I bought really pushed the limit I had originally wanted to spend no more than $150. Must be a drop-in replacement for the stock card I did not want to mess about with stuff like reflashing the ROM on a card that was intended for Windows machines, for example.Must provide more graphics power than the card it was replacing.It wasn't especially cheap it cost me about $260. I ended up purchasing the nVidia GeForce 8800 GT 512MB Video Card from a vendor on eBay. When Steam was released in early 2010 and I realized that the stock video card did not have enough power to run Steam games, I searched for a replacement. There are very few video cards that will work with the Mac Pro 2,1.
