I am runing a g4 1.3ghz. osx 10.3
my PCI cards are: TC electronic Powercore
adaptec scsi card 2920
radeon graphic card
MOTU pci 324
im not sure which one is compatible with g5 & which card needs updating.?
i also have 2 cinema displays. the main display is connected to the built in graphic card via ADC..
the second monitor is connected to the Radeon graphic card via DVI. the question is : will i be able to connect both displays to the G5 by using using the same connections or will I need to use some sort of adaptor?
please help

MOTU pci 324 can be upgraded for about £250 to G5 spec. You won't need the RADEON card as g5's have dual monitors on one card, you may be ok with the connections you have but adapters from ADC to DVI are no problem. The adaptec, I'm not sure, I think not, hold on...Oh, bad news...quote
Thank you for visiting Adaptec’s Mac OS compliance page.
Adaptec is no longer developing SCSI drivers for the Mac OS. Technical support is available for those products still in their complimentary support period; however, there will be no new SCSI drivers, firmware, or patches available.
