What's the best g5 video card w/ 2 DVI ports?
#1
Most Mac video cards have either dvi/vga or dvi/adc.

I have 2 dvi monitors and one may be a 30" one day - what are my options?

It depends on if you have an AGP or PCIe G5.

This is very, very sad but this is the best one on the Apple site: http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/We...o=1B7261B2&nplm=MA271Z%2FA

The best one, BTO, is the NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500. Though unless you're doing CAD work you probably don't want it. It's also a $1650 upgrade. The NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT is likely your best bet.

The ATI Radeon 9600 Pro will run two 30" Apple displays, about $185.:

Yes, but that's mostly worse the he's got now and he did ask for the "best."

I should ask, what do you plan on using the card for?
