Since you are into this Mac cheap, look around for good deals and start replacing stuff with newer parts... I have been tweeking my 8500 for 3 years now and it will come VERY close…

In theory, it'll work. That's how people got the V3s to work on Macs using unsupported beta drivers. However, I recall reading something regarding there is a fundamental differenc…

Thanks for the reply. I will e-mail them as well. What led me to think that there is not too much difference between a card for PC and a card for Mac is because 3Dfx and ATI did …

I read somewhere that since current macs only have 2x AGP slots and most new PC's have 4X there was a difference. The 64Mb PC version can evidently bottleneck a system in a 2x AGP …

Sorry, i knew I was wrong as soon as i posted my reply so i looked up the ATi site. I couldn't find anything which would suggest the PC version wouldn't work with the Mac but I'll …

A PC Radeon card will not work in a Mac. In fact, with the exception of Voodoo 3 cards, no video card is cross-platform.

I saw some painted (or something) iBooks on a Japanesse site, but there was no English translation. The one that struck me was black except for the center portion which was a neon…

I think it is "Newer" that has just come out with fast G3 upgrades for the Wallstreet. You could get one of these. Other cool stuff would be if you could find a DVD module for it …

Well, seeing as how it doesn't exist, you'll have a hard time finding it.

The closest you can get to that is to hook up a 17" display to an iMac DV or iMac Special Edition.

I think he means that 17" monitor that someone stuck iMac innards into. That one. IT was a sony or something. Ca$h

Try this link for a 21-inch iMac.

While this may be counted as a Mac Mod, you already posted in the Peripherals forum, and it is not in good taste to go around posting the same thing in more than 1 forum. I have on…

The chips are rated at 450mhz, so instead of having possible heat problems with O/Cing them by 13mhz they chose to go down one step. Of course if I had one that would change. …

I am starting to think there is a conspiracy against iMac upgrades. The reviewers could be mostly owners of blue or graphite towers so they don't realize the importance of iMac upg…

true true... WASSSUUUUPPPPPPP!!?!?!?!??! Heh. Ca$h

Covert ops time! Apple has to be in on this. I'm just worried that if i don't get in quickly they are going to can the product or something will happen to it like the Game Wizard …

It won't catch up. The first-gen iMac has a 66MHz bus speed. [This message has been edited by Kozmik (edited 07-27-2000).]

It must be because I too am Canadian, but I must ask this again, and someone will finally put me in my place: why are we STUCK with the 66 Mhz bus speed. How is it implemented on t…

Yeah, it's because you're Canadian. Fux0ring with bus speed can lead to some mad problems. [This message has been edited by Kozmik (edited 07-24-2000).]

yeah, my USA rev D has a 200mhz bus speed. Really. Ca$h PS: Hehe>

Yeh, but isn't 66 US MHZ(my iMac is the US version) worth like 100 canadian MHZ? Flipper P.S.: Eeeehhhh!
