**Could you back that up, please?**
Sure, the differences are in the way that the cache handles writes. When in Write-Back mode, the default setting, also called Copy-Back, anythi…
What's the best NuBus Video/3D card i can get?
------------------
People aren't as dumb as you think. Wait, what was I thinking, 90% of the world uses WINDOWS!
You don't like Mac…
Hey,
What type of Mac is it? I have a PowerPC Performa 6116CD, which is a NuBus Mac bought in 1996. I added a NuBus Apple video card in it since I want a better support for moni…
Oh, it's an old PowerMac 7100/80. I don't plan to play UT on it (heh heh, the thing would probably blow up), but i do want to make it a internet machine and also so it can show ne…
I was sitting at lunch today and had a revelation. What if you could rig an iMac to have dual G4 processors. I'm not concerned about heat issues right now, just if it could be do…
How do you propose to do that? There's only one daughtercard slot, and only one G4 processor available on any of the upgrades. I don't think the motherboard could support dual proc…
tell ya what. I'll MAKE a dual G4 processor iMac for you if you can figure out how to get an AGP slot into an iMac. All you have do to is somehow desolder all the traces to the …
sorry I'm too lazy to search the posts, I was wondering now that my warrenty has long expired whether there was a way to overclock my iMac and whether I'd see any reall performance…
I read the articles about overclocking, and I want try it out on my machine. My processor (iMac DV) runs @ temperatures between 85-105 F 32-38 C (copper). I opened up my Imac toda…
I wouldn't think so, if it only runs at 105� F as a top temperature now. Just don't take the thing up past 500MHz would be my advice... I'm scared to do it on my iMac DV SE, as at …
If you do it yourself, the only thing I would suggest is being VERY careful. The resisters your are moving, are very fragile. A buddy of mine tried to overclock his iMac (bondi 2…
Great... that makes it even more simple! When I crush one resistor I get 500 MHz, when I crush two 550 MHz, When I crush them all I get a dizzling 1000 MHz ....
lol I guess it's hard to mistake a resistor for a capacitor...I know certain capacitors are used for timing purposes, and taking them out would increase speed. Just look at my OC'd…
What If i were to overclock it to 1 ghz, what would happen. Would my imac melt? Or would it not boot?What is the max speed you think I could overclock my DV SE without hurting it. …
Ok I am not saying that I have ever OC'ed a computer, but I don't think it would be wise to double the speed of a chip at a speed such as 500MHz. I think the safest speed bump you …
You have to remember, the higher clocked G3 chips are already near their limits, it's pretty rare to get an overclock from 500, but from 350 (if it is a copper), you are almost gua…
