Don't think you can do that. Something about differences in heat sink locations. At least that's what I've been told. Changeover occured on some 500s. At least you need to check that.

Is it possible to take the logic board from a Graphite 600mhz iMac to use in

Or is there down converter, power supply and power analog video board
incompatibilities?


I believe you can do such a swap without issue.

I believe all the slot load CRT iMacs used compatible power supply guts. So if you have a 600 MHz slot load CRT iMac with a dead power supply, CRT or otherwise, and a working 400 MHz version, you should be able to just
swap the logic boards and thus bring the faster machine back to life.


The same applies to the tray load CRT iMacs, I believe you can safely
swap logic boards between tray load models.

What you can NOT do is swap boards between iMac lines, so slot load
models can't go into tray loads and vice versa (and the Flat Panels
models are right out).
