Nvidia has commenced what it calls "a critical" renew to the Mac drivers for its GeForce GTX 285 as well as Quadro FX 4800 graphics chip. The driver update is required to continue Mac OS X kernel compatibility, and will influence consumer who plan to modernize to Mac OS X 10.5.8, according to an Nvidia representative.

Both cards are ready for Mac Pro systems. The GeForce GTX 285 is accessible by Nvidia industrialized partner EVGA. This was launched last month. The drivers are obtainable for download from EVGA's Web site. The most recent Quadro FX 4800 drivers are accessible from Nvidia. The Quadro FX 4800 is a workstation-level graphics card obtainable as a voluntary add-on from the Apple Store.

Nvidia powerfully supports users of any graphics card to fix the fresh drivers before attempting to advance to Mac OS X 10.4.8. As Macworld posted this article, the recent release edition of Mac OS X was 10.5.7.
