I have a quicksilver witth a geforce 2 mx graphics card, I was going to buy an ati readeon 9000 pro to upgrade my card but I noticed it said it requires an adc enabled mac. I use an apple flat monitor display and i want to be sure that its going to work on my machine.

I guess you want to improve gaming graphics? if so you will gain a resolution but you wont gain frames and a little more eye candy. reason i ask is i went from a 2mx to geforce 3 and gained a resolution and a little more eye candy. best improvement was putting in the 1.4 owc. that jumped up my framerates big time.
