Hey aqua,
Which one is better and faster 5500 or 3700? The 3700 has more memory bandwidth than 5500. Does that make it faster?

Well also 5500 has 1024 mb of ram so has twice the amount of video ram. To be honest, I would think they are fairly evenly matched. 5500 was top of the range verses mid range but later card. I would think they outdo each other in different areas.

So in terms of flashed GEForce to quadro that statements is still true right?

If you are flashing to Quadro, nvidia have been quite cunning with the 3700, it cannot be flashed with a straight rom edit, I suspect there is some hardware trickery going on, unfortunately I do not have a 3700 to compare. So the 5500 is the way to go at the moment in OSX.

Hey Aqua, thanks for the ROM mod for my XFX 7900 GTX. Everything is running fine and I have QE/CI running. However the Graphics is showing "Graphics by NVIDIA:" in System profiler. I edited the info.plist line below of the NVinject.kext and I lost QE/CI and now profiler just say's "Display" and nothing else.I reverted back to its back to the original NVinject.kext so its back to "Graphics by NVIDIA:" qith QE/CI running.
<key>model</key> <string>Graphics by NVIDIA QUADRO FX 5500</string>
Can you tell me how to show the Quadro FX 5500 in system profiler?
Thanks

I figured this out, it was the lastest version of nvinject that was causing it. v1.3 works, but now i'm using GFX strings.
