What is the best 3d gaming card (in windows) for my Mac Pro? I don't mind flashing a ROM of a PC card. It needs to run OSX also.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Have a look at ATI Radeon™ HD 3870 Mac & PC Edition. It also means you don't need to "flash" the ROM for it to work for Mac OS X.

AMD claims the Radeon HD 3870 runs 15 percent faster in Unreal Tournament 2004, and modestly faster than that in Enemy Territory: Quake Wars and Quake 4, all at 1280 x 1024 resolution; 1024 x 768 resolution yields considerably better performance for the latter two games.
