Hello
I want to get a 128mb graphics card and i was wondering if this was capable for my machine:

128mb GeFORCE FX5200 AGP 8X 128Mb DDR + TV-OUT

My mac Specs:
466MHz PowerPC G4
512 MB SDRAM

Ive current got this graphics card:
ATY Rage128Pro
Type: display
Bus: AGP
Display Type: CRT
Slot: SLOT-1
VRAM (Total): 16 MB
Vendor: ATI (0x1002)
Device ID: 0x5046
Revision ID: 0x0000
ROM Revision: 113-72701-130

At the moment im running with Mac OSX 10.3
Will this graphics card work on my comp?
Will i need to install drivers?

Thanks
Matt
 
No, you need a Macintosh-specific video card. Currently, the only company that makes aftermarket Macintosh video cards is ATi.

Check here for a good list of compatible cards, and make sure the one you select is compatible with your system (there should be a list of compatible systems for each card):

You also need to take into consideration what kind of connector your monitor has, as these cards may ship with a combination of DVI, ADC or VGA connectors.

No need to install drivers for Macintosh-compatible video cards as they're all included with the system, although ATi sometimes offers updated drivers and utilities on their website.
