i have a sawtooth, which i know didn't come with an ADC monitor. however, i'd like to have an adc-capable card in my parts bin. i looked at one on ebay but there is an extra tab with a few contact on it, maybe 1/2 to 1 inch in front of the agp contacts. i thought apple used contacts 3 and 11 especially for the ADC monitor, but obviously these "extra" contacts must have some purpose.
what are they for, and i assume that G4 machines that came with ADC monitors have an extra socket in front of the agp socket into which this tab inserts. finally, was this design only for the G4, or would this card work in an AGP G5? thanks! this ebay listing has a decent picture of the connector i'm curious about: http://cgi.ebay.com/APPLE-G4-NVIDIA-AGP-ADC-VIDEO-CARD-630-3963-POWERMAC-G4-/250773870717?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item3a6349987d -- 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.
