how about the ATI Radeon 9700pro Mac edition 128 MB DDR SDRAM AGP 8x?

Isn't a PC ATI X800 flashed to Mac fairly powerful as well?

Seriously? That is the BTO card and is very hard to find.

Built to order. Meaning, they only came on Macs as an optional upgrade.

I have one on one of my FW800 Powermac G4 dual 1.42 because I was just lucky to snag one of those.

Your best bet would still be the ATI Radeon 9800 Pro flashed. I am not sure if an x800xt would work on a G4.

I think a non-Mac one will, but it will have to be taped. Not sure about the taping, but I think it'll work.
