Rocket33 and Performa 600

I have a Performa 600 with a Radius rocket 33MHz card. The Rocket has 20MB and so does the P600. If I used the Rocket as the main accelerator will it combine both RAM pools and use all 40MB? -- Mark Benson AIM - SilValleyPirate MSN - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit FlatPackMacs online: http://fpm

Daystar Turbo 040/40 - overclocked?

have read up that 20MHz cans on these cards make them run at 40MHz. I highly doubt the oscillator has been changed as the soldering is far too neat and there are no marks that indicate it's ever been removed. Was Daystar overclocking these chips at the factory? -- Mark Benson AIM - SilValleyPirate
