why would someone like to have the Radeon 7000 in a cube, you might ask. well, it is the only card that runs *COOL* AND supports QuartzExtreme. plus it has S-Video out. i took the rom from the radeom 7000 PCI and flashed it to a PC Radeon 7000 AGP (Radeon 7000 was never available for AGP-slots in macintoshes). i'm not finished testing it, but it looks promising at the moment, no problems in OS9 so far. oh, and it is necessary to move the DC-DC in order to install the Radeon 7000 AGP.
update: it seems to run fine in OSX as well. huge list of possible resolutions. the modifications needed are the same as for the Radeon 8500. and did i mention that this card runs COOOL? :wink_smile: -------------------- cubes, only cubes and nothing but cubes...
