Hey folks,

I have a G4 Quicksilver from 2001 with an 800MHz processor. I'm going to be beefing up the memory to 1.5GB but I had a question about the CPU. Currently it's the single 800MHz and I've been reading about overclocking it Here I imagine that I could get the CPU up to 867 or 933 without any significant changes in my cooling system. As a matter of course, I'd probably upgrade the heatsink paste to arctic silver.

Instead of overclocking though, I was wondering if it were possible to drop in a CPU daughtercard from a MDD G4instead of OC'ing? :?:

Thanks for the help!
