This may not be necessary: I emailed Sonnettech yesterday in the midst of this discussion to ask them about disabling the 512k Level 2 cache soldered on the Tsunami board and the requirement in the Sonnet manual for G3 & G4 processor upgrades that the 1 meg L2 cache SIMM be removed if present on boards with a removable cache chip. I have TWO Tsunami-based computers, a 9600/233 with a 300 MHz NewerTech G3 card in it (for which I have a 450 Mhz G3 Sonnet card coming this week) and my trusty Daystar Genesis MP 800+ with the Sonnet 800 MHz G4 card in it. The Sonnettech response i received today was that Sonnet processor upgrade cards for PCI Macs are built to ignore soldered cache chips. Maybe I'm amazed.
