For the Mac Pro platform

EVGA decided to bring some heavy GPU firepower to the Mac, and have released a GTX 285 card for the Mac Pro platform.

The GTX 285 is indeed a powerful piece of hardware, with 240 processing/shader cores, a 648 MHz 55nm GPU, and 1GB of GDDR3. 

"EVGA is very excited to bring the EVGA GTX 285 Mac Edition to the Mac community," said Bob Klase, VP of Sales at EVGA, according to a press release. "By extending our line of high performance graphics solutions over to Mac, this ensures everyone can benefit from EVGA's unique products and services."

"With the EVGA GTX 285 now available for the Mac Pro, consumers can take advantage of our incredible GeForce and CUDA technologies running natively in MacOS or in Microsoft Windows under BootCamp," recalled Ujesh Desai, General Manager of GeForce GPU business at NVIDIA, after a satisfying lunch.

Now the Mac just needs a good volley of games that need this kind of fierce graphic horsepower.

    Because designing a "Mac Edition" sticker is a notable achievement!

    Hey, I would consider it an achievement just to make Mac Drivers without Apple having control over it.

    Shame that Mac OS X doesn't really have too many worthwhile games for it. That, or too many programs that can use CUDA. But for those who do like Bootcamp, this could be a nice plus.
