Hello, I have a Mac Pro Mid 2010 quad-core 3.2 GHz with ATI HD 5870 with 2 mini display ports and 1 DVI port. I would like to connect at least 3 monitors: 2 Apple Cinema 30' (2 DVI dual-link ) and 1 Apple Cinema 27' ( 1 mini display port ). I ordered this graphic card for my Mac Pro (early 2008) because the original graphic card was no longer able to keep up the demands of current software like Apple's Motion or Final Cut Pro. I needed an OpenCL-capable graphics card or Intel HD Graphics 3000 or later. The original ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT couldn't cut the mustard for my current needs.
