Trag asked:

Anyway, IBM had some spec. that said that for speeds over 100MHz, the PPC601 needed to be cooled below some temperature and that's why Apple and Power Computing used the Peltiers on PPC601s which ran at 100MHz or faster. I don't know why the 90MHz 7200 has one.
That board design was used in some markets with a PPC 601 running at 120MHz in the PowerMac 8200.
