Actually, it's only for the 10x mulipliers and higher. Powerlogix claimed they found a bug in the chipset that forced a 10x or faster G4 to be downclocked to 66Mhz external bus. They released a G3/1.1Ghz chip that still used the 100Mhz fsb. See here: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/accelerators/PowerLogix/PowerForce-ZIF/ The 1Ghz chips are still available new evidently. Not a bad upgrade if you don't need Altivec. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
