I'd like to upgrade the video card in my Mac Mini.
Specs:
Machine Name: Mac mini
Machine Model: PowerMac10,1
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (1.2)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 1.42 GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
Memory: 1 GB
Bus Speed: 167 MHz


I currently have a ATI Radeon 9200 (32 MB) installed and would like something on the order of GeForce 6800 or higher.
Any thoughts?
