Nope, you're 100% correct. The previous poster is the one who's wrong. A PCI card will do absolutely nothing to help out an already more powerful AGP card. All it would provide is extra screens if you needed it. The original poster just needs any AGP graphics card with a Mac ROM that supports the Dual-Link DVI setup. Some models of the Radeon 9600 support it, and the 9800 Pro series and later all support it. Several of the nVidia cards also support the dual-Link DVI mode, but I believe that a 6800 Ultra is required on the Mac for the 30" display. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
