Of note:
# Multiple Display connections

* DVI-I port
* VGA port
* S-Video port

The PC version doesn't appear to have all three ports. You can check it out via the product comparison form:

I don't see any official pricing information yet though.

I've finished up most of my benchmarking. Here's some results. I didn't run identical tests in all of the games because, well, I didn't want to... I'd cry.

I apologize for the poor formatting. The spacing works fine in some forums/browsers but not others. Someday I'll reorganize the data and make some graphs. Actually, I'll probably make this a web page tonight and just link to it rather than worry about formatting in various forums.

One thing to note. The 9200 has a High Performance setting and a Normal Performance setting. When possible, I recommend using High Performance for obvious reasons. However, if there are issues setting the card to Normal Performance may fix the problems.

I still have to finish up tests on my platinum(beige) G3/G4 (only a 533 G4). I unfortunately do not have access to a B&W G3 or a Yikes! G4.

These tests were all done on the same machine. While the Quicksilvers don't have 66 MHz PCI slots the system should be sufficient enough to push the card given the limites of the 33 MHz PCI slots.
