Most LC475/Quadra 605 machines use a pre-Intel CPU, which will make any video encoding painfully slow; at the very least get a machine with an Intel CPU, if you want to encode vide…
I counted 3 row of 40 pins which is a PDS connector, not a Nubus. So this would add an FPU to the IIsi that doesn't have one and allows one to keep the PDS slot for an ethernet or…
JRL's right...its a right angle PDS adaptor board for the IIsi. While it will fit the SE/30, it would've originally been intended for the IIsi, as it has a FPU fitted. (the SE/30 h…

It looks about the size of an Asante network card and is that a math coprocessor …

Quadra 605 all the way.... except I'm not sure if I've ever seen one advertised... and they can be a bit pricey... is my gut feeling... so smallest maybe, & 605 is good, sm…

There is not a 6GB HD in. Runs much better however the CD drive is flaky at best. It will read the OS 8 and 8.1 CD but not the 8.6 CD. It will also not read Duke Nukem 3d (disk …

At least I can upgrade it so it is a bit faster.
The HD is being a pain and freezing a lot when using OS 8 while trying to read a CD and other things. I think I will replace the H…

You can only mount the 166MHz module in the 1400 it came with. The 133, the third-party 180MHz and the G3 module are the only upgrades for the 117.
Nice bundle of accessories wit…

depends on what you're going to want to do with it. If you want one with relatively current-day functionality, you gotta find something that does at least 8.1. Honestly, 9.1 is r…

The G5's time has definitely come. Apple and Adobe are both dropping support for it and all other PowerPC systems in their next major software release.
What I'm waiting for is the…
Try turning off images, java and animations. Should be much faster then.

Otherwise, you'd need probably a 600MHz for "real" web browsing.
I personally second what Bunsen said - the first generation Power Mac G5s are actually now Vintage...which basically is Obsolete unless you live in California, not to mention that …

Just MHO, and I am no mod here, but I reckon if Apple's abandoned support for it and shunted it off to the "Older machines" page, then it belongs here. ISTR PPC w…
maybe I should make it 33mhz...

Even so, it would still be pretty much the same speed at web browsing. Try turning off images, java and animations. Should be…
