Open ACPI Multiprocessor PC, open Microsoft ACPI-Compliant
System, and then open PCI bus. Click PCI Express Root Port,
click PCI standard PCI-to-PCI bridge, and then click the next-tier
PCI standard PCI-to-PCI bridge. Then the graphics/PCIe card
installed in NA255A will appear below the bottommost-tier PCI
standard PCI-to-PCI bridge.
Four PCI standard PCI-to-PCI bridges will appear below the
PCI Express Root Port when upstream port (slot 1) is set for ×16.
And six PCI standard PCI-to-PCI bridges will appear below the
PCI Express Root Port when upstream port is set for ×8.
There will be PCI Express Root Ports with different ending numbers
such as 1C10, 1C18, 1C1A and 0101. These different ending
numbers indicate the different PCIe slots on motherboard.
Note:
Whether or not a motherboard supports 4 GPU cards depends
on the firmware of the BIOS of motherboard. Consult with the
manufacturer of motherboard about whether the resource of BIOS
supports 4 GPU cards.
No software is required for configuration of NA255A by
operating system of host PC, workstation, or Mac Pro, but
when a GPU or PCIe card is installed in NA255A, a request
for the driver of the GPU or PCIe card will be prompted by
the operating system. Please follow the driver installation
instruction given by GPU/PCIe card.
If there is a yellow exclamation mark in front of the GPU/PCIe
card below PCI standard PCI-to-PCI bridge, it means the driver
for the GPU/PCIe card has not been installed. Therefore,
the driver needs to be installed on operating system to let
GPU/PCIe work with host PC or workstation.
After the driver is installed on operating system, the GPU/PCIe
card will work properly with host PC or workstation through
NA255A, and the GPU/PCIe card will appear below the
bottommost-tier PCI standard PCI-to-PCI bridge as well as in
the list of Device Manager.

Click
PCI Cards
on the left side of pane. It will show four
(when upstream port is set for ×16) or six (when upstream port
is set for ×8) pci-bridges that indicate the four or six PCIe slots
in NA255A in the information field.
When a graphics/PCIe card is installed in one of the PCIe slots
in NA255A, the graphics/PCIe card will appear below the four or
six pci-bridges.
After the installation of the driver of graphics/PCIe card on
Mac OS X, the graphics/PCIe card starts to work with Mac Pro
through NA255A.
For certain model of Mac Pro, when GPU/PCIe card is installed
in PCIe slot in NA255A, the information field will appear blank in
PCI Cards section in System Information on OS X, but the
GPU/PCIe card does work properly.
