The X1900 PPC Mac version
So, not one of AtomBIOS "PC" cards, and no modern connectors.
But it does 2x DualLink DVI so it should be able to do 2x 2560x1440 for which I would need a 2nd active adaptor.
Well and a PCIe G5 since it does not exist in AGP....
Now AGP cards do exist as PC version which might work after a flash but will surely fail at dual screen support.
I did find some HD#### AGP-cards that are listed as compatible and should have ATOMBios and could put my APG G5 into a similar situation as PCIe one (as in no boot screen). But again will most likely be restrained to 1 screen.
On the plus side, that 1 screen might be on HDMI and go to 2560x1440 or even 4k (@30Hz I'd guess).
Tempting......
For AGP I used a 1950Pro PC card with dual had support. Worked great!
I do eventually want to try out some of the PCIe cards to see what works, I don't need custom roms, just the PC version. Wonder what the fastest dual head/screen pcie video card that runs right now?
