Should work just fine. And see if you can upgrade the L2 cache as well - to 512K or 1 MB. IIRC, 7500's stock cache is 256K. A 604/150 and a 512K or larger cache will provide a substantial performance boost - nice, cheap upgrade. Which version logic board do you have? FWIW, if it's not a VAL-4 board, your 7500 *MAY* be able to use a PCPro 604e as well. I've heard many reports of successful upgrades with these 60 MHz bus daughtercards - YMMV. If you have a chance to pick one up cheap, it may be worth your while. -- Gene, a.k.a. G-Man Common sense isn't.... -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
