Some Questions to pick your brain over. hopefully.

I have a power mac g4 digital audio edition. 466mghz cpu with 896 megs 133mghz bus. And the other day I found out that I can upgrade the cpu to a newer & faster dual cpu chip.

this -> cpu http://eshop.macsale...gy/MAXG47S1600/

Now I was wondering if my ATI AIW 9800 Pro from my desktop that I seldomly use now would work in my g4.

I am looking at upgrading the whole system, cost effective. cause as of right now I have roughly $200.00 in it. Which that was a gfx card and the OS since it didnt have an OS when i got it and it was free.

So basicly what I would like to know if my ATI AIW 9800 pro would work in it or do you have any suggestions for a gfx card that is reasonable in the price. max would be 150$ for it since i am looking at 240 for a dual cpu chip for it.
