ok, it arrived today... installation was fairly straightforward, had more trouble trying to remove my rage 128...
The power for the card doesnt line up with my motherboard, so that will be why there is no power for dvi etc... but they do explain this on owc...
im using a dvi to vga converter that i bought for £4 at a local shop so its not a problem for me.
impressions....
when i first booted my machine, there was no signal for the grey screen but once os x kicked in, i got a signal. Obviously i had to set displays back up.
I still dont get the grey screen when booting which is kinda important if you want to boot from another hard drive or get the warning signals... if anyone has any ideas on making this work i would be really grateful!
Tested a couple of games so far, first was return to castle wolfenstein... runs very nicely, full settings on 1024 x 768 everything turned on, its pretty smooth but i imagine the only thing stopping it from being completely silky is my dual 533...
Then tested sim cuty 4, seems to be running ok, but this was my first time on the game so was onyl running the tutorial since it requires a 32mb graphics card and my rage didnt meet that...
should be testing out battlefield 1942 but this could struggle as it requires a 800 mhz processor... not sure how my dual will help out with games but not expecting much.
have installed the ati displays, however it does say i require the firmware update, but when i was reading about the firmware update it doesnt seem to support the 9600 so i didnt run it, if anyone can shed some light on this as to what to do.
Anyhow, have rambled enough now... iif anyone has any questions, feel free to ask... i will be doing some xbench tests in a bit...
