G4 Cube - Flashed GPU

I'm reasonably new to the world of GX macs but recently acquired a G4 Cube and would like to leave the world of ADC behind me. Would someone be willing to flash, test, and ship a GPU to me? I'm happy to pay for both the card and service or just service alone if you prefer I get the card.

Oh and... what card do you think is best with the stock VRM? Any other recommendations? Thank you for your expertise!

Can't help with the first question, but you need a low profile GPU to fit next to the stock VRM or the VRM needs to be relocated.  Look around for the XFX Geforce 6200 "WANG" AGP GPU; I've found a few of these for < $20 on eBay which I've snapped up for modification.  You'll also need an 80mm fan with any GPU upgrade - but a slow, quiet slimline fan will do.

Thanks Byrd! What I really need is someone who can do the flash ... because I really don't want to buy an old PC with an AGP slot just to do this myself.  :sadmac:
