    now lets explain why i buy the x5000/40
    before i had a pegasos2 1266mhz ... for me the best machine made for an amigan because linux compatible with mol-kvm, morphos, amigaos.

    take the x5000/40, (the 3 october 2016 was to me) because on paper it specs will made my g5 quad goes in pension and will gave me linux, amigaos and morphos togheter again on the same machine.
    but this was not true ... from very beginning i report to aeon the bed video gpu performances ... result they change the document specs of x5000.

    g5 quad continue is the best powerpc desktop machine made .

    Video card support of Linux on X5000 is better than video card support of Linux on PowerMac G5?

    on linux ppc you can have all the board available on linux x86 ... only mesa are problematic because endianess in SI sourcess.
    the same gpus work on G5 and on x5000 but better on g5.
    i tested on my quad radeonhd 4.xxx,5.xxx,6.xxx an 7.xxxx, r230 all are working . only r7 is not running but can be only a firmware issue not a pcie compatibility issue.
