Could I take any GeForce4 Ti and put it in my 733 Quicksilver? I mean the cards made by any of the many vendors, not AGP 8x or anything

If you mean a PC video card, no. I've tried my Geforce4 Ti 4200 from my Gentoo box in my FrankenMac, and it didn't work. No video at all.

Well i searched around enough and found that the card will work if you upload the mac bios onto it from a pc. Does anyone know where i can find this bios and a program that can upload it onto the card?

With that problem solved, can anyone tell me which GeForce4 Ti would be the best in terms of value?

I've also heard that some 4200's can be overclocked to 4600 speeds. Is this true, and if so, how can you do this?
