I plan on listing my Dual 1.8 G5 (PCI-X) on eBay over the weekend, but I'm having a difficult time deciding which graphics card to include with it. I upgraded the graphics card to an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro Mac Edition with 256MB of DDR RAM. However, I still have the stock card that came with the machine, the NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra with 64 MB of DDR SDRAM.

Should I sell the G5 with the ATI card in it, or replace it with the original NVIDIA card and sell the ATI card in a separate auction?

9800s are tough to find (if true Mac cards), they will fetch near $200 alone on Ebay.

fyi, just sold a DP 2.0 with 9800XT for $1k, felt I did fine and buyer was happy.

If you do decide to sell the 9800 and it will work in 2x AGP slots (I think most 9800's do), please let me know. I'm looking for a new video card for my sawtooth.
