Hi,

For some time I've been wondering if there is a page or site listing compatible PCI-X and/or PCI express cards for PowerMac G5's. For CPU upgrades and DVD drive compatibility the is always xl8yourmac.com, but anybody have pointers for me?

Specifically looking for storage (SATA, SCSI, FC) and networking cards that work, preferably without add-on drivers...

I've been looking for the same thing without any luck. What kind of card are you looking for? Maybe we can help each other. [email protected]

Pfew, most specifically a list of cards that work without drivers.

Eg. could be that all Intel Etherexpress Pro/1000T cards work because Apple uses them in XYZ. I'm mostly looking at networking and storage cards...
