Do not use the 604ev/250 in the 7500. (All of the "Kansas" version CPUs were ev series, not e series and had an in line L2 cache on the board vs the older motherboard's use of an external L2 cache SIMM.) You can damage both the CPU daughtercard and the motherboard. They are not compatible. The 233MHZ is the fastest OEM Apple card usable in the older PCI Macs.
