Ca$h, though I often disagree with you, I now realize the potential in my iMac as a mobile gaming machine. I am going to create a mezzanine to PCI adapter, and affix a Voodoo5 5500…

Um. I must disgress first. Here's why. You will NEVER get very good FPS in comparison to a G4 tower. Or a G3 tower for that matter. They have faster busses for one thing, bu…

Cash, how about a monitor cable between that externally mounted card and the cable that comes straight from the built-in monitor in the iMac case? You would need to chip some of th…

No. That wouldnt work. That built in monitor port is part of the mobo, and it uses ATI Rage graphics. That will only MIRROR stuff... basically you can hook it up to another moni…

Thanks Ca$h, for putting my words in the right order! What I meant to say, like Ca$h just did, was to COMPLETELY forego the built-in video output, and reroute the whole thing throu…

Sorry about that, forget the cinema display, all that excitement made me forget about that DVI connection and stuff... Flipper

I'm sorry, I can't afford the cube! Looks like I might switch to console games full time unless some of this stuff works out soon. All of this new mac stuff is soo cool but too har…

Become an Apple Student developer for $99 and pick up your new Cube for $1400, 15" Cinema for $799. Oh and of course you get all those nifty ADC mailings and OSX developer releases…

yeah. You can. That isnt the problem. The mezz is the tricky part. That part has been done before. Ca$h

Oh, ok... Doug

I got it repaired, and it's all good. The dudes who worked on it were really cool, they're a tiny LOOKING company that raked in over 3 mil last year. Wow. Even hold a few US pat…

Glad to hear it Ca$h, now if only we could see some pictures... ------------------ -Ruddigger ------------------ Have you had your gigaflop today?

You're the king of mods, and you're *paying* someone to overclock your FrankenMac? dude. you suck.

I dont have soldering irons tiny enough to tinker with surface mount resistors. Think I'm nuts?!?!?! Actually. Don't answer that. Ca$h

anybody who says 'they aren't even Mil Spec like Moto' is gotta be ok show us da pix ca$h where is da frankenimac

I have a revision A iMac, it only supports 128 MB of RAM, is there a way for it to recognise more than 128 megs? Maybe a more powerful processor?

I'm typing this on a rev. A with 160 MB of physical RAM (32 + 128). The current limitation on RAM for a rev. A is 384 MB. You can achieve this by using a standard 256 MB module i…

Hi, I own the Rev.A iMac as well. It does support more than 128MB RAM, which I installed 2 128MB 144-pin RAM in it two months ago. It works great now for 256MB RAM without any …

My parents have a Rev A and I want to add a 128 chip for them. Is the 32MB chip that is already in it, in the upper or lower slot? I've seen both upper and lower slot 128MB chips…

It's in the lower slot, but you can of course put it in the upper slot as well.
