Replacing the stock Ati 128 PCI with the Radeon 7000 PCI, would be possible to connect the Formac Gallery 2010 ?

The Formac 2010

From the Formac PDF
System Requirements Macintosh - One of the following systems:
a) Power Mac G4 with NVIDIA* GeForce2 MX, GeForce3, GeForce4 MX, or GeForce4 Ti graphics card, or ATI Radeon 7500 graphics card; and Mac OS X v10.1.3 or Mac OS 9.2.2

b) Power Mac G4 with DVI port (via an NVIDIA* GeForce4 Ti graphics card*)

Sure, but dont pick that up. Pick up this one:

(I am not the seller, just looked like a good deal to me)

and then this VGA-DVI Adapter

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...;category=3668

For a whopping $3.

Cheers!

oh, I just got the ATI yesterday, thanks anyway Now the whole thing is to find the Formac at a reasonable price here in Europe, just compare:

Formac site price -> $ 1199, great price !
price here in Europe -> $ 1737, what the hell !, that is insane

I can probably pick one up for you and then ship it overseas, if that will be cheaper.

(denotes a high grade of emotion)

But what about the power supply (and the different plug) ?
