Graphics card for G4 800 gone bad
I just had to replace my PCI card by finding one on Q-bay, which is like e-bay with a hernia.
Anyway, now my graphics card, it seems, has also gone bad, leaving me with nothing but a grey screen. But I can't find one one on E-bay, so I don't know where to look. It's a 4X AGP ATI Radeon 7500 graphics card with 32 MB of DDR SDRAM. So until I can find one, I'm on the sidelines. What shall I do if I can't find one online? |

Re: Graphics card for G4 800 gone bad
There are probably other 4x AGP cards by ATI or NVidea that will work in that computer. Just look for mac editions with those specs. There's some sorta pricey ones on ebay now, you might be able to find others on computer parts websites.

Re: Graphics card for G4 800 gone bad
Wow. 3 whole cards to choose from. I would not suggest a PCI video card with PT so that leaves you with the 9000 or 9800.
If it were me I'd go with the 9000. 9800s kick ass, but so does the noise/heat. If you aren't afraid of buying used or flashing the options open up a bit. |

thanks so much guys, it's good to see the old timers here to answer this one.
I'll try the 9000 like you suggest. |
