[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1305640, member: 56379"] No there aren't. There were probably about 7-8 different graphics cards available for 14 different Powermac G5 models. If you're truly seeing "hundreds of different kinds"...I can guarantee you 90% aren't the correct cards. If your Powermac G5's video card has a DVI and a VGA port...just get a vga to dvi adapter for that 2nd port. Problem solved.:) But (more than likely)...that 2nd port is NOT a vga port...but an ADC port. In which case you need an ADC to DVI adapter. Same result...problem solved.;) - Nick [/QUOTE]
