ATI Radeon 9200 Mac Edition PCI Video Card 100-436011 – Customer Reviews
Not compatible with HDMI
-
This card has DVI output, but does not work with an HDMI TV. HDMI is DVI video plus copy protection plus audio. ATI did not say why it didn't work, but they "escalated" the problem to see if there was anything they could do. Never heard back from them. Doing some research I think the problem is their implementation of DVI does not output HDCP (the copy protection scheme built-in in HDMI). My PowerBook's DVI output works just fine with the same cable/adaptor and TV so I know for sure the problem is the card. I had to return this card as it was intended to be used with my big screen TV.

good yet inexpensive video card

in the process of upgrading my *secondhand* computer, I found that some of the games I bought for it wouldn't play smoothly (or at all).I'd been hearing good things about this card for some time and it performs as advertised>I would recommend it to anyone with a legacy Mac(G3 or G4)
