I want more then two monitors on my dual 1.8 G5... Does anyone know a graphics card that can be added as a second graphics card (non agp) on this particular machine? I couldn't find anything that will work with the faster bus.

The ATI Radeon 9200 PCI video card will work in a G5 PCI slot - ps. if you're looking for a PCI-X video card you won't find one.
Note that all graphics cards that come with the Power Mac G5's are dual head cards and will support two displays. The only problem is you may need an adapter for the second display.

Maybe you misunderstood me (I may not have been perfectly clear in my statement), the ATI Radeon 9200 will work in a PCI or PCI-X slot in a G5 Power Mac . So if you have an empty PCI or PCI-X slot, the ATI Radeon 9200 will work in that slot to give you another 2 displays. Although it isn't a PCI-X card PCI-X slots are backwards compatible with newer PCI cards.
