  • video card recommendation for 1Ghz G4

    Posted by Steve Goldberg on May 20, 2005 at 8:40 pm

    I was wondering if anyone could recommend a video card for a dual 1Ghz G4 (older model) that can run 2 dell flat screen monitors (DVI, VGA). The card I have, which does have a DVI and VGA out on it doesn’t work. I’m not sure if it’s because of not being able to send out a 1600×1200 signal or if the problem is related to DVI or some other incompatibility.

    Thanks for any recommendations.

    The ATI Radeon 9800 MAC Edition – which is 4x AGP/DVI and AGP outputs and 128 MB DDR works just great in my Quicksilver 2002 – dual 1.0 GHz MAC. Since I have a 22″ Cinema Display – ADC, I needed to purchase the Apple DVI-ADC adapter to make it all work.

    I needed that card to run Motion.

    Same here in G4 1.25 MDD. FCP and Motion, dual monitors.
