The mad scientists at the StrangeDogs forum have successfully converted a Windows PC GeForce 7800 GS to run on both 8X and 4X AGP Power Macs. Those are both great cards but if you have the craving for even more speed, your only alternative was to buy a new Dual-Core or Quad-Core G5 Power Mac. For G4 Power Mac (4X AGP) owners, the best available retail option was the Radeon 9800 Pro. That left G5 Power Mac (8X AGP) owners with the ATI Radeon X800 XT as their fastest optional retail graphics card. Adding insult to injury, Apple dropped the optional GeForce 6800 GT (and Ultra) from their Graphics section of the online store. When the Dual-Core Power Macs were announced with an optional GeForce 7800 GT PCI-Express GPU, there was a collective "groan" in the community of Power Mac owners with AGP slots.
