ATI Radeon 9800 Pro Mac Edition AGP 128MB W/ Box Power Mac G4 Works NOS Rebuilt .
Genuine Mac Edition Graphics Card - Not a flashed PC Card . Tested and works great in Mac OS X .
This is the fastest factory made OS X gaming card you can install in a PowerMac G4 . Top of the line .
This is a New Old Stock graphics card that I rebuilt because the factory GPU chip thermal paste almost entirely evaporatedafter being in storage for two decades . Thermal paste needs to be moist in order to work .
A new layer of premium 8 year durability Arctic MX4 thermal paste was applied on the GPU chip .
This card was thoroughly tested at load in a Power Mac G4 Digital Audio running Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger .
It passed a 16 hour stress test using two instances of a Mac OS ATI written version of FurMark - the famous Windows GPU power virus . You can see in the included listing video a part of this test of the Dynamic Fur Demo ( Furry Jaguars ) . It\'s really a cool test and easily places the card at load . During this test , two concurrent 23\" displays were connected at 1920 x 1200 resolution at around 60 Hz ) . The card passed the stress test with flying colors and no artifacts were observed .
