It wouldn't run the installer for the first beta update to Mojave from High Sierra.
When I looked into it briefly I saw a note to the effect that later updates would work on the 5.1 computer but quite frankly I have so much on my plate right now that I really couldn't spare the time to get involved, especially since my current setup is working so well.
If the public version of Mojave will install then I will update it but as far as I am concerned High Sierra, 10.13.6 is doing a sterling job and I can't see any NEED to go further.
Update:
Have d/l latest full Mojave installer 5/9/18 it offers to install then when I start the installation, refuses, stating my graphics card had to be 'Metal' compatible.
My current Graphics Card is: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285, 1024 MB
I am considering the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970, 4096 MB
I checked about the 970 GTX card and it seem NVIDIA are sketchy on Metal support. I don't quite understand 'Metal' It seems to be like 'CUDA' but different, I need/want 'Open GL' for Lightroom, which I think the 970 GTX should bring me but I can't understand if it will also make my MacPro 5.1 'Metal' compatible...
