personally, I need to find out what card to buy for a power mac g5 agp, the mac edition of the 9800xt works but the card is defective- horiz blue-cyan lines tested in both morphos and osx 10.5.8
would like to find out if a agp based x1950 pro will work or what is the better choice x800 or x850?
I got a X1950 running in my G5, but it is way slower than the 9600Pro (Mac & PC Edition) which I still use.
Furthermore it had some gfx errors in e.g. RTCW (tree leafes in open areas).
It also might have problems booting in combination with other cards - here e.g the G5 wouldn't start when I had a HVR1110 tv card installed too.
So, ATM I think you're better off with a X800/X850.
