G4 Cube: possible processors?

2011-06-10 Thread Mac User #330250
Hi! I finally got a G4 Cube from eBay, and since I've got so many feasible processor cards laying around I'd like to know if it was possible to upgrade the Cube with them. What I have: 1) a Dual-450 MHz G4 7400 from a Gigabit Ethernet 2) a Dual-800 MHz G4e 7450 from a Quicksilver 3) an OWC

My thinking was that a 7400, which uses more power than a 7410, may still use about the same amount that an _underclocked_ 7450 will use – in addition to the thermal issue of possible overheat. And the other thinking is, if a Dual-450 will work, then a single 1.4 GHz (underclocked to 1.2

Trying to find how much Watts a specific G4 will pull, I found this quite good yet in some specific points incomplete list (in German): http://www.macinfo.de/hardware/chips.html So apparently the 7400 pulls 5 Watts at 400 MHz and 6 Watts at 500 MHz. So 5.5 Watts at 450 MHz is a good
