Can I stick a 180 MHz (60 x 3) processor card pulled from a Power Computing Pro 180 desktop into my Power Mac 8500? I don't know if the PPC's are clock-locked (fixed multiplier), but would it automatically adjust to something the 8500 could handle, like (50x3, 45x4)?

It will work fine.
How? With the intended 60 MHz x 3? I thought the 8500 (it's a /120 mobo) could only handle up to 50 MHz. Just want to make sure before I plop it in, as the case was not designed too well as far as airflow is concerned and I can't exactly fit a fan to the card.
