The CRT in the Classic is capable of 640x480, it has to modified to run at a higher voltage for the refresh rate to work right, but if you planning on putting a G3 in a Classic tha…

I have wanted a CC for a while. Before I got one, I had been doing alot of reading on modifying the machine. I think the res. will bw the easy part, but I dont want to do it unti…

Having read the link that you provided, I think that you the easiest way to go would be to get a PowerPC upgrade for a 550 or 575 (very rare) and try to make it fit (as the page sa…

Keda, as I did not mean to discourage you (nor to take your experience with hardware work into doubt, either), - if my posting sounded like this please take my apologies. I have …

I struck gold over the holiday. I found a used commputer store. I wasnt expecting to find any Macs, but the place is loaded. I am going to go back when I get a chance, because t…

Keda, finally I have found at least one web site with a lot of information on Apple/Mac motherboards: <http://www.micromac.com/whats_new/logic_board_picture.html> …

Keda, another one is: <http://w3.trib.com/~dwood/specificmacs.html> with many links regarding Mac hardware. Regards, Walter. ferstl@mac.com

nice links prof... thanks Keda, how's the project going? i really like the idea

I am reading alot and looking for a board. There are some used mac dealers around here said they would give me a call if they get any PB w/ blown screens. I dont want to tear apa…

Keda, you will find the following page interesting: member.nifty.ne.jp Good luck and best regards, Walter.

Thanks for the link. I have actually read of this before. Right now, I am tryingto get the physical dimensions of some logic boards. It seems that the 6500 is not that much bigg…

Keda, if you want individual parts, i would suggest going to smalldog.com, they are the largest vendor of individual parts that i can bring to mind at this point. i built a 603e 24…

what are the risks in attempting these modifications to your ColorClassic ? what are the safety precautions ?

What are the risks? Wasting a bunch of $$ and time, and ending up with pile of broken parts. But its a project, so if it fails I'll deal with it. I took the CC apart last night.…

well have fun with that and good luck

Dredging up a two year old thread is bad enough, but you have nothing to contribute? Not a good first impression...

billybob128 perhaps you ought to look into things a bit deeper, and realize that posting garbage gets you nowhere and makes you look like a n00b...

Sounds like a good idea to me, not crazy!!!

Yeah, you can do that. Thats my next project, but first I'm swapping my 333 with another 333 (in yet another iMac) because it runs 40 degrees cooler, thus easier to O/C. I shoul…

You can certainly chip it a bit more but since the 1st gen A-D all still have the 66mhz bus, as the ratio increases so does the bottleneck. I'm not sure how much faster Powerlogix …

Cash, after having some free time and reading about your copper/aluminum fiasco i found out that my chipis aluminum....bummer. Can I Still overclock it without killing my precious …

Yeah, you can. But check how hot it runs right now with that powerlogix cache controller.. (available from powerlogix.com)... this will tell you how hot you run NORMALLy.... l…

Well my iMac runs between 116-123F, 116 when just sitting there on, 123 when playing MP3s and such. I am guessing this is pretty hot but i'd still like to know of my overclocking a…

Thats not that hot. Thats somewhat normal. My old aluminum chip ran at 146-150 degrees. Blech. Ca$h
