If you have a G4 Sawtooth, you want AGP video cards. A PCI Radeon would not likely make a significant improvement, but it certainly has the power to run flat panel monitors. There are no PCI 8500 and 9000--these are both AGP cards. Either would give you performance improvement and either will power your LCD monitor.

I been following discussion on upgrading video card to a Radeon PCI 7000. I have been considering that option also. I have a G4/400 sawtooth with the original video card. Will the Radeon PCI 7000 make a significant improvement in performance. I do use Photoshop Elements a lot in my Genealogy research. Also I was told by a sales person at a dealer of Apple Products that the Radeon PCI 8500 and 9000 would also work, but it would not have power to the contacts to run the Flat monitors.
