Most probably yes, but be careful with the cards that you get. I see that nVidia cards don't have 3D working well and future ATI cards might not have have good drivers, according to what I heard Benjamin H. saying in the Linux Kernel Mailing List. BTW, if you don't use your PCI Rage128 card anymore, I would be interested in that as I am currently using a much more limited card with an old PowerMac that I have here. > im aware that there are graphics card especially for macs, but id > prefer to use a standard pc one if it will work. I think that you can flash the firmware of some cards and use them without problems on a Mac. Some other members of this list might have more specific information regarding that.
