TitleDoes anyone have an old Radeon ATI 5770 for a Mac Pro kicking about that I could borrow? Long shot, I know...

To cut a long story short, through a series of unfortunate technical glitches my Mac Pro 5.1 won't boot into its OS correctly. I am pretty confident that the issue is a mismatch of NVIDIA drivers for my flashed 980ti that sits in it, caused by a \*fucking stupid autoupdate pushed by Apple\*... sigh.

Anyway, the long and short of it is that I think I need to get my hands on one of the original GPUs that these machines were sold with in order to be able to see my OS and either fix the drivers, or update the OS past 10.13.6 and get a newer AMD GPU which are said to be natively supported by that point \*BUT\* none of that really matters for this post!

Basically.. if anyone has one of these knocking around and wouldn't mind loaning it to me for a few days while I troubleshoot my existential problems, I would be most appreciative and will reward with a bottle of nice whiskey.

Drop me a PM if you can help!
