I have a dual 2.5Ghz G5 (model M9457LL/A) and I want to know what is the fastest graphics card I can purchase for this machine (machine has an 8X AGP graphics card slot). I currently have a stock ATI Radeon 9600 XT. After doing a little research, it looks like the fastest cards I could find from ATI and Nvidia are the ATI Radeon™ X800 XT Mac Edition and the GeForce 6800 GT or Ultra cards respectively. I found a review on Bare Feats website that does a pretty good job comparing the cards detailed above along with several others. It looks like the ATI X800 XT or X850 XT is the way to go however I thought I'd post a message here to see if anyone knew of any faster graphics card I could purchase for my machine. Any assistance on the matter would be greatly appreciated ... thanks :)
