Hi, 9500 Tsunami board's limitation appears to be the speed of its embedded 512k L2 cache, while the maximum 604s will run is on a multipler factor of 3x bus speed according to Takashi Imai's website: http://www.bekkoame.ne.jp/~t-imai/maine.html Upgrading to a 604e can give multiplier values to 6x the bus speed.
