there might be newer video cards out there, but I don't know if they'll work with your Mac Pro or not. I don't know what your budget is for buying a newer video card, though, but yes, that might be one way to get 4k out of your Mac Pro. 3 gigs of video ram, works in Mac and PC, and guaranteed to work in a Mac Pro of your vintage no sweat. I'd say maybe give the Sapphire radeon 7950 Mac version a go. So whatever card you installi in there should work, but slower, but it will work nonetheless. Your Mac Pro, due to it being older, won't have nearly the bandwidth and speed in that PCI Express slot. Don't know why you're on Snow Leopard, but oh well. For what it's worth, your Mac pro can run El Capitan, if you can find it somewhere. Basically: you have two options: 1-find a decent Mac-compatible video card that will work with your 2009 Mac Pro, or 2: Find a PC video card that has been flashed to work with Mac. Just so you know: you can't link 2 video cards together to get more power, but I'm sure you knew that already. The GT120 is okay, but it's a little slow and you may not find that it meets your needs.
