I bought a flashed Radeon 9700 Pro for my dual G5, and it's worked flawlessly. I know, I know, I could've flashed it myself, but I didn't have an AGP Windows PC to do the flashing with, nor did I feel competent enough to determine whether or not I had a 128KB EEPROM. I can't comment on how the Nvidia 6200 would work, but at one point I did have a flashed GeForce 3 in a Quicksilver - no problems there either. Good luck, whatever you decide to buy. I think the only retail Mac card is the 9800 Pro. However, you should be able to find at least a handful of "real" Mac cards on eBay, though they'll most likely be used.
