Someone gave me a G4 tower, because it occasionally does not start up at all. (The next time it does that, I'll be ready with my voltmeter to test the power supply, since that seems to be a likely cause).
Since otherwise it seems to be working pretty well, I'm thinking about upgrading it from its original 400 MHz CPU. However, I don't think it's worth spending anything close to $100, and even OWC doesn't have anything for anywhere near $50. They do seem to buy old processors, so I figure someone somewhere must be selling (for instance) old CPU's for cheap. Which CPU's would work, and would I need to make any modifications? If I understand my Mac right, it has a 100 MHz bus. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
