Make sure to view your card’s model number and the clock speeds before you download any ROM to overclock (if you want) and create a EFI Overclocked ROM to use in your Mac and/or PC. Here is a list of the factory ROMs for this type of cards from XFX at the TechPowerUp website. I bought the XFX instead of any other brand because of the looks, the reviews I’ve read and the experience I’ve got from this brand. INFO: The card I flashed is this one, you can flash with the same guide all 7950 or 7970 cards I think. In both cases, hook up your monitor to the newly flashed card and enjoy Boot Screens and Correct System Profiler info! In case of Windows PC, shut down, remove the card and put it into your Mac Pro’s PCI Slot 1. Shut down your Mac Pro, unplug the card from PCI slot 3 (probably) and put it in slot 1 after you remove the old OEM you have.Run TechPowerUp GPU-Z and select the second graphics card, if you see it OK with all the card’s info and clock speeds, you’re done it right ☺.The info you will get MUST write Tahiti as the chip name)Ītiflash -unlockrom 1 , (I suggest you do this because some Bios files are in fact locked and can’t be flashed until unlocked, the XFX ones are indeed locked)Ītiflash -f -p 1 7950.rom (this is the flashing process, when it’s done flashing simply CTRL+ALT+DEL to reboot to Windows on your PC or your Mac) While on DOS, give the following commands:Ĭd AtiFlash (this takes you to the folder we will use the program to flash the card)Ītiflash -ai 1 (remember that “1” means the second PCI card, not the main, it’s wise to have only the two graphic cards hooked on your computer.Reboot and select as Boot device the USB Dongle.On this folder put the files from AtiFlash download and the Rom file from the previous step (6). Inside the mounted USB Dongle create a folder and name it “AtiFlash”.

(Mine was named like this on this card model).Rename it to “7950.rom” to be readable with full name in DOS. After this process you will have a file that probably will be named as “”.

Follow the netkas directions to the letter EXCEPT the above noted one.NOTE: netkas has made a misspelling on the card id number, instead of 697a as he has wrote, YOU SHOULD write 679a. I wonder why this isn’t mentioned there already…
