  Would I have any problem with my Blackmagick Decklink HD when I change my old PowerPC G5 to a new mac Intel?

  if the card is pci-e than you can switch, if it’s pci-x than you have to buy a new one.

  Hi,

  a_falk is correct. If you’re using the DeckLink HD card, it is PCI-X and will not work in the PCIe slot of the Mac Pro. You’ll need a PCIe card then. The DeckLink HD Extreme is a nice option to consider.
