On the rear of the card are four places where one zero value resistor is soldered. The indicia reads: 250 MHz, 300 MHz, 350 MHz and 400 MHz. All Mach 5 motherboards are 250 MHz or faster; all pre-Mach 5 motherboards are 233 MHz or slower, and none of these have these identified resistor locations. No 400 MHz processor cards were ever made. These zero value resistor locations are actually dummies. The real locations for altering the processor speed are under cleverly the heat sink. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
