You can use ATX on a tower (will fit fine), but I don't think the desktop version can fit a standard ATX supply in the case.

There are a couple 68040 accelerators for the IIfx, along with the Radius Rocket, thats it.

I agree a free mac in any condition is AWESOME!!!!! (all of mine were free )

It might be overheating. The original thermal paste between the CPU and heatsink has almost certainly dried out, if it hasn't been renewed. Also check that the heatsink clip is t…

Very nice modification. Shame that OS X won't support the resolution. Wonder if you can get a CRT tube that will got higher than 640x480 in the same dimensions.

On a side note. Did they ever make a compatible PPC upgrade for the IIfx? Or is expansion seriously limited due to the unique architecture of the motherboard?

Back in the day when Gamba was with us (RIP, Gamba.) Click to expand... Wait what happened to him?

Hmmm you upload the sounds it makes?

Hehehehehe welcome to the club of free iMac G5's! When I got mine it had no leaky caps just some ram problems and it was like a gift! It replaced my iMac G3 350!

Are there any DIP switches on the card that need adjusting, or have you tried adjusting the backside cache speed using CPU Director? JB

Do you have capacitors for LCs?

I'm experiencing Déja Vu again

Just out of curiosity, regarding all this thread, didn't Apple have more than one manufacturer for the CRTs? I'm thinking something like that wouldn't be any different of a situat…

Free Macs are always worth every penny no matter what condition!

To be honest(yes, I know my opinion does not enter into anything) I think the forum is fine the way it is. We do not need extra crap to load it down. It is nice and fast and fine.

so no discussion will happen, since the mods cant make coherent or on topic post most of the time wouldn't it have been easier to just say no?

Who said anything about you getting to discuss it? All changes made to the forum are discussed by the moderation team... My personal view on the matter is that it'll probably stay…

Possibly... it will have to be discussed once we've upgraded. Click to expand... Excellent. So we get to discuss features which are added, but not features which are removed.

Well on ebay I sold my G5 for 750.00+35.00 shipping.

That last paragraph is key, and very good news for me, who has a IIfx to get up and running soon.

Make sure you installed the batteries correctly and they're the type that are supposed to be soldered. If I were you, I would install 3.6 V battery holders so you don't have to bo…

I recapped both of my IIx systems and the IIx spare motherboard, they are reliable now. Not realy that many capacitors (or values) needed.
