<< Will the PCI slots,ethernet,modem/printer,scsi,etc,etc line up in the new case? >> Yes, everything will line up, from the 7200 up to and including the last of the pre-G3 PCI Macs. Even the single M3.5-0.6 screw which retains the mobo lines up. What doesn't line up is the power-on switch and indicator. >> I have a 9500 with a Powerlogix g3 upgrade with 1mb onboard cache and themobo cache disabled. I just hate the way the 9500's case is designed. Especially when I had to troubleshoot one of my bad ram sticks. What a pain to install/remove ram. >> Yup, the 8500/9500 case is perhaps Apple's all-time worst design. >> Just wondering if there would be a performance difference between installing my g3 card in a 9600 or just moving my 9500 mobo to a 9600 case. >> Probably no difference. All have 50 MHz buses. I've run just about every kind of compatible CPU in my pre-G3 PCI machines, including the stock Apple CPUs, the third-party upgrade 604e CPU cards, the third-party MP 604e cards and the third-party G3 upgrade cards. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
