Hi,

Upgraded my 6200 with a 6500 motherboard and got the info somewhere that I need
also to change the power supply, ( first I was looking for a 6360, in that case
the info was right)
after a lot of questions in different lists I got the answer:

the 6320 and the 6360 run on 3,3 volt output,
the other Mac's in that category run on 5V outbut,

so, my 6200 runs with the 6500 motherboard without any problems,

if you would but in in a 6360 a 6500 motherboard you also will have to change the
power supply and I am not sure that you will have enough power to run a 6500
motherboard on it.

Should I be wrong, please let me know.
