If there is anyone out there with a GeForce2 with the TwinView option, can you post the approximate physical dimensions of the card? I need to know if it will physically fit before I purchase one.  Yeah, I know, call me crazy, but a Mac users gotta do what a Mac users gotta do!

Where can you buy them? The only ones for mac come with the new powermacs, you can;t buy them anywhere can you? You could flash teh rom of a PC one, but then you don't get to use your $1000 apple monitor because a PC card won't have an ADC connector.

My local Mac repair guys tells me that he can get one from Apple as a repair part, but the cost is around $350.00.  Ouch! So I have yet to take the plunge, as I am not sure if I can even swap the faceplate to make it fit!  A little help???? Anyone ?????

OK, I measured mine (the graphics card, pervert) and it is 7"x4"x1/2". Hope that helps.

Yeah, about those TPS reports, didn't you get the memo?

I've been running a TwinView 2 MX in my cube for a couple of hours now...
It's definitely faster than my Radeon in games both on rave and opengl - I have not yet tried it in os x.
But the heatsink gets hot... and I mean HOT - anyone know how large the original cube 2 mx heatsink is?!

Call ME crazy, but I've given up on the AGP twinview for Mac. I'm goona get one of these http://www.bestbuy.com/detail.asp?e=...1&scat=522
and throw it in one of my PCI slots and keep my main monitor on my main ADC AGP GF2 card and pick up one and eventually two 15" LCD's for the card linked too. I can't wait, my general production will multiply proportionately to the increase in screen surface area :-D

Sweet! I am now the proud owner of an installed Nvidia GeForce 3 Card!  Can anyone tell me where/how/who I can obtain the information/software on benchmarking the new vs old setup? One that will run in OSX ? I see all these FPS posted all over the place, what is being used to obtain these stats? Thanks for any help!
