I doubt it John.
Most of the QS and later either had a 133 or 167MHz bus speed on their
motherboards and the CPUs had to be matched to those.
The Cube is only 100MHz isn't it ?
Also the chips that were used in the QS and later were the PPC 7445 I think
which sucked a lot of power and ran hot - not ideal for a Cube with it's 205W
PSU and low airflow case design.
Most of the better and later aftermarket CPU upgrades that came from Sonnet or
PowerLogix used the 7447 chip which ran much cooler

Some also supplied a VRM bypass kit to take some of the load off the VRM.
There have been some guys who have installed CPUs from a DA like a dual 500MHz
but with a bit of case modding as well.
