Well I'll tell you all it was NOT worth the incredible price I paid for all of this stuff. I did not buy it on ebay because I hate ebay. Instead I bought them from a reseller. This QuadDoubler with warrantee in a Centris 650 board and 128 megs of RAM cost me about $200. And the damn thing doesn

Re: QuadDoubler results are in!!!

It is DEFINITELY a Centris 650 board. You dont need to double check, it will be a waste of time, because it is DEFINITELY a Centris 650. Anyway, Im interested in this accelerator that will work in a Quadra 950. Does it plug into the processor slot or the PDS slot? Chris -- Quadlist is sponso

Re: QuadDoubler results are in!!!

Yes, the Centris 650 board with 50MHz 68040 you have seems to outperform a Quadra 800. However, a Quadra 800 can be clock chipped to 44MHz, or 48MHz if you dont need the serial ports. That processor speed combined with an equivelant bus speed, however, may outperform a 50MHz 68040 on a 25M

Haroon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I noticed the Quaddoubler pictured on Sonnet's web site does not have a fan, but a heatsink. For some reason my Quaddoubler has a fan attached, which doesn't seem to be cooling it effectively. Anyone think replacing the fan on the Quaddoubler wi
