How much can I get for my G5? — #8

The best native video card you can get for it is the 7800GT 256MB. I believe this was only ever sold as a BTO option on a new dual core G5 so they're quite hard to find. You can f…

$20 working MDD's? You could make a little money flipping them on eBay, if you enjoy that kind of thing.

I checked eBay. $1500 would be on the high end of what you could sell it for. $1000 would be the minimum. Sell it on eBay with those specs and I think you could clear $1200. Craig…

Well over $1500 $1000 for a setup like that. Snow Leopard depreciated the value somewhat (irrational people who think PPC is worthless now because it can't run Snow Leopard).
