Sorry for the confusion.
i have a B&W with a 700 mhz sonnet upgrade 1 gig of ram with 10.4.x. the machine feels slow. the sonnet upgrade reduced the bus speed to 66 mhz. So i am looking for a cool upgrade path. I love the B&W case and I am not willing to give up on it yet. I have realized that the zif processor mobos will not get me where i want to go. this means i need a sawtooth through quicksilver mobo but which one? i would like to keep as much of the B&W as possible hard drives, memory, PSU, graphics card. I know that I could use any of the motherboards for the g4 "except yikes" with a 3rd party processor and make it fast. I would like something >700 mhz and you can get quicksilver processor at a good deal on e-bay sometimes. if possible I would like to use a stock apple processor like alk did.
My goal is to use the new stlye (sawtooth) processor card in my B&W
I am willing change out the psu if it makes a better machine in the end.
