[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 903844, member: 56379"] I would think that ATI would be the most compatible...since that is what Apple sells. Are you absolutely sure this 4870 card is a genuine Macintosh card? £125 ($206) is pretty darn inexpensive for a 1gig video card!!! This isn't a "Windows" card that's been "flashed" to work on a Mac? If so...they're not always the most stable. Apple sells the ATI 512meg card for $349 US (£211)...so £125 for a genuine Macintosh 1 gig ATI 4870 card is an amazing price!!!
