Clearly seem to indicate which Power Color cards will work and which won't. So the wrongly labeled chips theory could be correct.
Can you look at your Sapphire cards and tell me where the Flash ROM chip is located and how to identify ? I'm trying to help David R buy a Power Color card which can be flashed. My machine is at the bottom of a stack of other machines and Monitors and would take forever to get to the card. I am guessing the chip lay out is the same on both cards though it could be different but not by much. thanks Will S
I can definitely say that the 64 meg DDR PowerColor Radeon 7000 being sold right now at NewEgg for $58 with free shipping is flashable. I bought one of these and flashed it using the same "single flash" in a PC routine I used for my ATI 32 meg card many months ago. It's working fine in my B&W G3. This card has all 3 connectors also - VGA, DVI and TV out.
NewEgg is currently showing PowerColor 32 and 64 meg PCI cards and Sapphire 32 and 64 meg PCI cards. The Sapphire cards are cheaper. Do a search on "Radeon 7000 PCI" at NewEgg.
