AMD yesterday announced the ATI Radeon X1900 G5 Mac Edition, a next-generation graphics card that combines workstation-class creative productivity and cutting-edge 3D game performance. Just like a regular X1900GT card it comes with 36 pixel shader processors, 256 MB of video RAM and two DVI ports that are capable of supporting two 30-inch Apple Cinema HD Displays. At an estimated street price of US $349, the ATI Radeon X1900 G5 Mac is now the fastest graphics processor upgrade available for Power Mac G5 Quad and Power Mac G5 Dual systems.

Peeps that have mac's have too much $$ anyway that they want to burn on lumps of unworthy machines that only edit porn videos and make cheezy family videos for grandma to remember half of what she forgot about the family so she can bore everyone to death by talking incessantly at the family get togeather about how important her daddy (who was a moonshiner-communist-nazi-jew-soldier-braver than any man today-etc...) was and how ungratefull we children are.



And the fact that macs are gay.

Yeah, amazingly not all games are direct x.. :rolleyes:

WoW, Warcraft series, Diablo series, Starcraft, Most of the major DX games have been ported, All of ID softwares games are available, UT series, Age of empires series, Rise of nations, Halo, Doom 3...

so what if CSS isnt out for mac... we don't want steam's bullcrap invading os x anyways. :slap:

The new core animation is gonna give hopefully a much better Api for animations..

But then again, all you do on your pc is probably pr0n and games anyways...

Let me know when you actually have a use for a PC, such as work. :laugh:

Not to mention the huge progress parallels has been making, now you can just boot into windows if you really need direct X availability. Then you can take a look at darwine.....
