As you know the last powermac g5 had a PCI-X slot. If I put a 8800GT in there and used the drivers nvidia gave would it work?
Synaesthesia
No, you need a specific Apple graphics card for the G5 that has the right ROM/firmware.

I can remember someone can use an EVGA 8800GT on a mac pro could that work on a powermac G5

Did you not read what the Synaesthesia wrote?

The only way to even possibly get it to work would be to flash the ROM and pray.

But yeah, what Syn wrote.
