Flashing a 9800 Pro for MAC?

[Lorn]

Apple wants to charge me about $300 for a 9800 Pro when I have a friend who's selling his for $100. How do I go about flashing a 9800 Pro video card from a PC to work in a Powermac G5?

Replace the Mac with a PC. Sorry couldn't resist.

Try http://forums.macnn.com/ if you haven't already. If it is possible, they should know how.

Good luck,

not sure about that one, but im with you on the mac. they kick ass at everything, except gaming . which reminds me, im going to add my powerbook to my sig just to piss people off also, what are you planning to do with this G5/9800 pro? dont get any ideas on gaming, you will be sorely disapointed. WoW is the only good Mac game out right now.

I wasn't planning on doing any gaming it's just that I feel *icky* with a Geforce FX 5200 in my powerhouse system, you know? I'll be doing some realtime video editing so the extra GPU power would probably come in handy... plus $100 for a 9800 Pro is a good deal.
