Yes. You can use them both together. There's a chance that the 7000 PCI will kill the Quartz Extreme acceleration of the 9000 also. You can check if QE is working by using Quartz Extreme Check 1.2: <http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/8969/quartz-extreme-check> You can enable QE on the PCI 7000 card (and this will should re-enable the 9000 if it stopped) using PCI Extreme 3.1 available at MacUpdate.com: <http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/8979/pci-extreme%21> One last thought, firmware. People seem to never remember to keep their firmware current on their Radeon cards. You can check the firmware revision in System Profiler. The 7000 should be v.226 and the 9000 should be v.135 or v.136 depending upon the VRAM size.
