NVIDIA gts 450: So was given a broken GTS 450 (Unknown vendor...)

Tue, 10 Jan 2023 14:43:39 -0700

Once I got my power cables to run it...
Threw it in my Mac Pro 4,1

And...

The screen got Extremely distorted then crashed with this MacOS report.

Supposedly it's compatible with MacOS High Sierra and My Mac Pro supports it...
