MDD Pwr Supply and ADC Radeon 9000 in a Sawtooth

install an MDD G4 power supply in a Sawtooth, so that one could run an Apple Studio Display using the ADC port on the 64MB Radeon 9000
I used some of your posted guides to install an MDD G4 power supply in a Sawtooth, so that I could run an Apple Studio Display using the ADC port on the 64MB Radeon 9000 that I moved from my MDD G4. (There’s DVI to ADC adapters w/external ADC monitor power supply but they’re not cheap.)

I found the Apple ADC connector schematic, and used a multi-meter to confirm the +/- connections on the Graphics card. (If you could find a mating connector (and it would clear the motherboard) it would be nice to use that vs wires soldered directly to the graphics card. That would allow easy Video card upgrades in the future, although now even Apple no longer makes ADC displays and many 2x AGP (Sawtooth) compatible cards don’t have ADC anyway. I don’t know any source of a mating connector offhand though.-Mike)
