Hi. Thanks for your help. I'm considering buying the forthcoming nVidia 7800 graphics card for my Dual 2G (last year's model) G5 (w/1.5G of RAM). The card specs list OS X compatibility, but the interface is listed as PCI x16. What does this mean? Will the card be compatible? (I now have an nVidia 6800 Ultra.)
One more thing: I'm a little frustrated with the performance of my 6800 Ultra, not only on Doom 3, but also on slightly older games like Call of Duty and Medal of Honor. Do people have a feel yet for whether a faster graphics card will help? Will the 7800 be better than the 6800? Or do you think the bottleneck is elsewhere in the system?
