This may sound a bit silly, but I'm looking to trade my Radeon 9800 Pro for something like a Radeon 9600 Pro. If you have a 9600 and are looking to upgrade, I'll trade my video card for yours + $120 cash. I'm hesitant to go for anything less than the 9600 because they don't fully support CoreImage. I just got a PC recently and since it's such an amazing gaming machine I really don't need all the extra graphics power in my Mac.
I may as well also mention that I have a flashed GeForce 3 available. I've tried to sell it before without success, so I'm going to offer it up here as well, for a super cheap price. $40 shipped. Anyone want it? It only works in 4x AGP slots, otherwise it causes screen flickering.

What are the specs again on the 9800? Any interest in a GeForce 4 TI 4600? If so, what would make up the difference? Thanks.

The 9800 is a retail card, flashed from the PC version, that looks exactly like this one. I have a digital camera but right now I am somewhat unable to take pictures with it (long story). Anyway, for you G5 owners, this card will work in a G5. However, since it's a retail card, it only provides a DVI port, a VGA port, and an S-video port. You can't use it with an ADC display. It also has a supplemental power connector (seen at the back corner of the image I linked to) and I'll provide an internal power cable so you can hook that up.
It is flashed, as mentioned above, and I think I should make that known. However, I've never had any problems with it at all. It even works with the ATI Displays utility, as if it were a Mac native card.

Little bumpity-bump here. Also, an update: rather than sticking to just trading this card for a 9600, which is not likely to happen anytime soon, I'd also be open to trades for a Radeon 8500, 9000, or a 9600. I would also be willing to sell the card outright. I'm just looking to get some cash from this and trading it for a GeForce 4 Titanium wouldn't really get me enough money to be worth it.
So I'll update my asking prices:
Trade for 9600 + $110
Trade for 8500 + $160
Trade for 9000 + $160
Sell outright for $240
I don't want a GeForce 4MX, and I already have a flashed GeForce 3 that I'm not all that fond of using (but I will if I have to). And I doubt I'd find anyone willing to trade me a Mac-native GeForce 3 for anything other than a straight-up trade with no cash. Oh, and if you have an 8500 you want to trade, I'm fine with flashed cards (mine is one, after all), but I want it to be a "built by ATI" one. I had a bad experience with a Gigabyte Radeon 8500 a while back, so I want to stick with stock ATI cards that are mechanically identical to the Mac version.
