    Find an Apple-Authorized Service Provider in your area and ask them
    for a price on those parts. Tell them you want the EXCHANGE PRICE.
    It's cheaper, but you have to give them the dead board. They'll have
    to see the board to make certain they order the right revision (there
    were three, I think). They can also tell if you tell them what's
    written on the video chip near the PCI slots.

    If you pay them to install it also, the part you order will be
    warranted for 90 days.

    If you do it yourself, you're probably on your own as far as warranty goes.
