Can you let me know which version of OS X you are currently on, I am presuming it is Leopard as the system profiler output looks like Leo's. I thought all 8800 GT's were either 512 or 1024 mb? Your card should be able to work but you may be better choosing to make your GFX strings manually as described on the forum here.
