Sooo, what question are you asking? If the AMD can run in tandem with an Intel?

cause if so, it can.

EDIT: Just saw the G5 part...idk what they are talking about the G5's had PPC...so i guess its either a typo or completely faulty information
 
So the mods delete the first thread you made about this which somehow translates to you to make another?

As I mentioned in the first thread you made the "AMD Radeon" is accurate. AMD bought ATI a few years back.
 
Someone obviously doesn't know the difference between a PowerMac G5 and a MacPro.

Big fracking deal, seen far worse on the Bay....

Never had a chance to see responses to the first post.
I realize now my mistake was the direct link to ebay, which is a no-no.
Thank you for this piece of info, as to the first part of your post I'll just ignore it as I do with most of your caustic posts.
 
WTF.

The Power Mac G5 has a G5 processor.

The Mac Pro has the Intel Xeon CPU. It has an AMD Radeon graphics card. AMD Radeon = ATI Radeon. Graphics chips, not CPUs.
