[G4] Video cards ??

[Mel Krewall]

No PCI cards will produce the enhanced graphics in Tiger. No AGP  
cards below the Radeon 9600 or Nvidia 5200 will either. That doesn't  
mean that Tiger will choke, in fact many aspects of the experience  
have speeded up for me. I have a Geforce 4 Ti (4600) card and  
resizing windows, one of the least satisfying aspects of OS X as far  
as I am concerned, has improved perceptibly. The only thing is that  
you won't get the swoopy new ripple effects in Dashboard and other  
eye candy that you would with a better card.
