I'm researching this too. Some cards are "flashed" by a third party for Mac compatibility. Some cards require you configure an ugly extra-power solution. Both these give me the heebie jeebies.
Some cards are limited to higher OSX versions, check that, because if you have a system with a range of boot volumes, which allows testing upgrades without disturbing known working solutions, it's a good way to check what card behaves with all of them or just some of them.
Ben King has some experience testing some of these, perhaps he'll chime in.
And if you install the 680, we want to hear all about it!
