Here is one: http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/G4CARDS/XLR8_beigeG4_500MP/BeigeG3_XLR8_G4_500MP.html or http://www.everymac.com/upgrade_cards/xlr8/mach_velocity_g4/mach_velocity_g4_mpe_500_2.html But that isn't the one I saw on E-Bay recently. I think it may have been described incorrectly, as I recall it looking a lot like this one:
http://www.everymac.com/upgrade_cards/powerlogix/powerforce_g4_100/powerforce_g4_100_1.2_dual.html Which is only for the AGP series Mac G4's. Here is a good deal on offer now on the 600MHz G4 from XLR8: http://cgi.ebay.com/XLR8-MAChSpeed-G4-ZIF-600-Mhz-Upgrade-for-Power-Mac-G3_W0QQitemZ270502376435QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCPUs?hash=item3efb32b3f3 Broos --- On Wed, 12/16/09, Da'Birdman <sa...@defalcos.com> wrote: From: Da'Birdman <sa...@defalcos.com> Subject: Re: 1Ghz G3 upgrade? To: "G-Group" <g3-5-list@googlegroups.com> Date: Wednesday, December 16, 2009, 8:21 AM I've had experience with both the Sonnet & the OWC CPU upgrades. They're both excellent - rock solid! I've never heard of a dual G4 400 - 500 in ZIF form before. I pretty certain these were only made for the AGP G4 machines. They're a daughter card rather than a ZIF, so they're not compatible with Beige, B&W, & Yikes. You guys could correct me if I'm wrong.
