A great many years ago, I was lucky ... should that be the correct term ... to "score" quite a number of G3 PDS upgrade cards for 7100/7100/9150 NuBus PowerMacs at a VERY low price. But ... these cards were all "less heatsinks". Yet, Digi-Key stocked the very generic G3 heatsinks which these cards required to complete them. All except one was thereby "resurrected". The video cards are using a BGA packaged GPU chip. It is highly likely that a generic heatsink, and generic latches are being used. So, perhaps "BGA Heatsink Retainers". --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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.
