Certainly no worries friend!
It might work, as it has 512meg of video ram and they seem much more compatible from what I have read.
It is just a bit of a crap shoot and I never tried your card. At least you didn't spend crazy money, so for a few bucks it was worth a try.
If it doesn't work, finding a card that will shouldn't be that hard given what people have reported.
This is imho the best system to run MorphOS on, Chris did a good job showing it off. So hang in there, it will be worth it in the end for sure. I use mine everyday and it stays up for weeks before I reboot it. Really enjoy MorphOS on it!

I took a closer look at the card you bought and it is definitely different from what I use.
I have the exact same version as Chris Edwards in his video. So in my experience, I'm not sure if your card even though a Mac variant would work.
Let us know. I looked for the link for the exact card Chris and I used and I couldn't find it.

Hello,
So I have finally found some time to try out my Powermac G5 11,2 with the ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 MB PCI Express graphics card, and.. the screen stays blank - no chimes, no flashing on the power button, just slowly increasing speed of fans. Any ideas?
Edit: I just read that it needs a separate power connector, oops
Edit: Does anyone have any idea of what cable I need and where to plug it in?
Congratulations!..
So I went to try out the 6 to 6(+2) pin connector and.. the plug is too big for the motherboard socket, turns out I need the 6 pin to
mini 6 pin cable
Ordered that today so will probably try again next week.
I am a little worried now..
