bascially weird looking connector = Mezzanine Mezzanine= PCI slot only smaller So get a mezzanine PLUG (not socket) to plug into the mezzanine connector on your iMac (if it has o…

Would there be a way just to SLI another video card to the one I already have? (iMac gamewizard) instead of having to rip the card apart to get the plug out?

Umm, where did you get a Voodoo2 PCI?

no, i have the iMac card, but maybe I could get a voodoo2 PCI and do a SLI thing

If there is a way to get any 'ol V2 to work on the iMac you can get SLI...but you'd have to get the Obsidian 24x card. It's a dual V2 card, runs a bit more in the $$ dept., and is …

Hey Cash, you should file a suit to PowerLogix for $10 (ten bucks) for paralleling a CPU upgrade with the Frankeinsten concept.

Really. ARgh. a month ago, my computer was pimp. Lots ram, upgraded hD, voodoo2, and 333mhz. didnt have the 466 mhz upgrade though, was planning on getting one in a bit. now T…

Ca$h, do you know if thats only between Rev A's and D's? I need a replacement for a Rev C drive and was gunna use one out of a fried Rev/B. I couldn't see any probs!!? + wat do the…

Basically, Rev A Cdroms are Rev A only. I dont know why... but I've been breaking that rule for a while and nothing has happened..yet.... So, Rev B-D is all the same (cept for th…

Ok, ic, thanks for clearing that up. Stole some nice mini screwdrivers from physics today so we're all up and running again, cheers

Well.. my computer needs to get cooled down before I can overclock it, and you guys have to help. I have a 1st generation iMac, and am trying for creative ways of cooling it. I'v…

have a look, it may give you ideas http://www.electronics-cooling.com/h...ers__list.html http://www.heatsink-guide.com/peltier.htm

One of the easiest ways to cool the processor better with minor cost/effort is to apply thermal grease between the processor and the heatsink. It's cheap and easy. Also, you could…

Hey, I have a SE iMac, and want to know if there are any hardware hacks for it. As in, changing the Grafix card so I can run dule monitors, PCI slot hacks, ect...ect. I know about …

sorry, gfx chip is on the soldered on the motherboard, no PCI, no mezzani (spelling?) slot, unless you have a rev. A or B - you have USB and firewire, tho! not much you can do leg…

Well, you can start with a bigger hard-drive!!!

the technical name for a computer like an iMac is a "closed" system, meaning the user can only add more memory w/o voiding said warranty. I prefer to call my alterations "unauthori…

Excuse me, but I do beleive I titled this thread "iMac hardware hacks." hacks, being the operational word there. I know exactly what I'm talking about, and what I am looking for a…

So, you plan to unsolder the graphics chip and somehow stick on a new one and think it will work? Good luck; you're going to need it. The circuitry is made like an ATi Rage 128 VR …

Hmmmm I already said this 4 times, but... SOMEBODY keeps deleting my posts... Yes, this dude knows NOTHING about iMacs or he would know that: A. there are no PCI slots B. Yo…
