As i recall you can't, the firmware on the Mac cards is different, maybe flashable though, do you know?

as far as i'm aware you can put any pci-x card in there

EDIT: just seen on apples site how that you get intructions on how to do it so i presume that you can

So instead of waiting one month you thought it would be a good idea to get into debt, yeah good idea. O and if your getting say 2k a month you really should have a small amount like 2k saved up. You could have used that to buy it.

Been with the job 3 weeks, so i havent got it saved up, i'm going to pay it off in like 2 months maybe 3, see what they will say tomorrow.

I still would have waited, least you would have knew about any issues with them etc

Meh, they don't take the first payment till you've got the thing and i would have been payed by then. But granted i see your point

i can't wait for it though, its replacing my windows machine, that is way overdue for an upgrade, its what to do with the old rig though :confused:

Phate · 28 Aug 2006 at 23:12

Well im gonna ring them tomorrow at 12 and say how quickly can i pay it off etc. and shall let you all know.

Phate · 30 Aug 2006 at 18:18

I've had to cancel it

due to the fact i found out today my job might not be permenant

/sniff

when i find out whats going on with the job, if i get it permenant i'll re-order but with a x1900xtx :cool:

Ouch, good luck with the job. I guess you'll have to change the sig for the moment...

Better?

Phate · 30 Aug 2006 at 21:44

Gratz on your purchase, having recently got one myself I can safely say youll love it.

Money well spent, as for the payment method, I like you could have saved up a couple of weeks wages, but im also too impatient and put mine on my visa card... along with 3x 500gb SATA drives, £700 worth of Apps and ill be ordering 4gb of FBdimms on Monday...

Ill probably be selling me 1gb (2x512mb) stock ram on here soon.

dude....you haven't actually read the thread have you

damn....£700 on apps, are you crazy!!!!

I read the first post, and maybe skimmed the next couple....

OUCH, sorry to hear that, btw... now ive read a few more posts.

As for the apps, I only got Aperture and PS, so not crazy, but mildly stupid at times.

LOL feel the guilt settle in...MSN?
