Video cards? Do they work?

Do PC video cards work in a Mac G3 350 MHZ??
I want to take advantage of the Quartz Extreme technology in 10.2 and I want to buy a ATI Radeon card or any card with GeForce 3 or MX chip. But I can only get PC video cards and I don´t know if they work in a Mac.

Short answer: Nope.

Long answer: They can ... BUT ... what you have to do is flash the card's ROM with that of a Mac card, or something like that. It isn't too easy and I've heard of lots of problems that can arise. For more info, you can snoop around www.xlr8yourmac.com but I'd have to suggest that you go ahead and buy a card that's meant for Macs.
