After the second Radeon video card in 13 years bit the dust in my old G-5 (pci-X) Mac I decided to try a different brand. Since I only use my machine for video and audio editing I wanted the most simple bullet-proof card I could get my hands on. Of all the options that were compatible this one simply looked as if it had the least amount of circuitry and electrolytic capacitors which are prone to dry up and fail over time. My machine booted and activated the monitor the first time I tried it with this card installed and it has worked just fine the few times I have used it since. I am very glad that it was available so I didn't have to resort to using the original style Radeon card again.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
Pros: It is 100% compatible with PowerMac G5. It works very well with OS X Tiger and Leopard. It doesn't require a fan onboard. It is a solid and reliable card. It has both ADC and DVI ports. It is available and cheap, about $10. Cons: Only 64mb RAM. Slowest G5 video card. Had difficulty installing under Linux (support for older NVidia cards is poor). This is a good video card and is suitable for everyday graphics use. It works perfectly under OS X. Good card to have available as a backup.
Just ok.
