If the whole system is well tuned it runs fine, under OS 9. But not that faster than the G3 it had before. Now the Carrier ZIF is into an 8600 with a G3 350 MHz and the performace are quite similar.
All these card are a true nightmare and as soon as you add memory or cards, or even HDs the stability decreases. Once I got rid of the SCSI for HD, though, the whole system gained stability. By todays standards the SCSI dogma was really painful! I managed to install OS X, 10.3 and probably also 10.4, but I kept having random crashes so that my Mac basement G4 became a blue and white G3 upgraded to G4 with another sonnet thing. Basically most of my Mac basement Macs are heavily upgraded: http://www.webalice.it/beniamino.cenci.goga/68k/Macintosh_Classic_XLR8d.html Sent from my iPad On 29/lug/2012, at 21:38, Cameron Kaiser <spec...@floodgap.com> wrote: >> http://www.webalice.it/beniamino.cenci.goga/68k/Power_Macintosh_7600.html > > Aha, so you have the 1GHz version of the 800MHz I have.
