So you're still comparing "PC's" to "Macs", since Macs use completely different hardware (with the exception of some of the newer Intel based Macs)...

Oh and you can get Nvidia GTX 285's (see: the most powerful single GPU video card from Nvidia) for Macs.
Macs do not use completely different hardware than normal PCs, I have no idea what you're talking about unless you want to go back 4+ years in Apple's history. The only thing different between a Mac and PC is that Apple builds the computer and the Operating system... It's not just some of the new Intel-based macs, it's all the Intel-based macs... using the same hardware. And not only that, the card you linked me to has two flaws.

And the card only works//fits in the macs that are the normal towers. If you want it in a mactop (Laptop lol) it just won't happen. I'd say 90% of Apple's desktop market is the iMac... and you can't even fit that card in them. This isn't to say that mac makes bad computer, per say, but the Mac has half as much gaming capability possible//available as a PC. And yes, I do distinguish between PC and Mac because they are both completely different models for making computers. One (on the pc end) Has a company or open software group producing the OS and letting the user basically use any set of hardware that has drivers for the OS, and then on the Other, Mac end, Apple builds the computers, and the OS, with limited customization possible.
