MorphOS Video Card for Quicksilver

About this:

"Radeon7000 (VE) / 7200 / 7500 / 8500 (LE) / 9000 (PRO )/ 9100 / 9200(SE) / 9250, 9600 Pro / XT *, 9700 Pro *, 9800 *, Rage 128 Pro * - a card with at least 128MB is recommended
Voodoo 3 / 4 / 5
SiS6326 *, SiS300 *, SiS305 *, SiS315 *
Permedia2 * / Permedia2v *
XGI Volari V3XT *, V5 *, V5XT *, V8[Ultra] *"

* = 3D hardware acceleration is not supported on these cards

the * refers to Radeon 9600 XT?
So, 9250 and 9600 Pro supports 3d but 9600 XT does not?

Well, ok, so flashing my 9600 XT for MAC means nothing again!???

So, no luck for me.... again...

Frankly, as a Radeon 9600XT on a G5 would provide me with a significant boost in performance and I'm not sure that the inherent complexity of today video cards is going to allow us to easily extract the performance that will be present on Mac or PC platforms (which ATI will provide proprietary drivers for), I don't feel impelled to great concern over this matter yet. I can obtain a 9600 at a low cost. Having owned one a few years ago, I'm familiar with its level of performance (which is better than my current 9250 but lower than my former 9500Pro) Frankly, I think this GPU is well matched to the capabilities of our OS and as we are apparently going to get support for a system that is more powerful than we really need (that we all asked for but douted we might get) I can accept this situation.

Há! R300 all the way!
Just hope it's not on the "Duke Nukem Forever" scheduling timeline....
