Hello
I was thinking on getting some more power into my old 7200/90 but the CPU upgrade is hard to find and is quite expensive.
Is there a way to to a motherboard swap with something faster? I presume that a 7200/120 will go into the case nicely but I was hoping for a bigger speed bump. Could I put a 7500 or 7600 motherboard in the 7200 case and get a cheaper G3 upgrade for the CPU slot? Or, even better, could I put a 7600/132 or 7600/200 motherboard and perhaps the 604e/200 will be enough so that I wouldn't even need a G3 upgrade? Would such a mobo swap require any modifications?
You could probably put one of those boards in there but you'd have to change the power supply.
Not 7200 -> 7500 or 7600. The 7300 was the only desktop in that line to have the odd PS.
