Do you have a good local electronic supply store? I've found that if
you find a good one, they can be extremely helpful in suggesting
replacements. Most can order very high quality

Title: G4 AGP - whats good replacement
I have always been one for buying something that I can use my old one for parts!!! This way if you have trouble again with another part you can swap it out, but in your case I would buy a working machine and not another one for parts to fix yours... Use
PC133 RAM; if your
Sawtooth has only PC100 RAM, you¹ll need to go about finding replacement
modules to use in your new G4.
As mentioned, the MDD (any MDD) is really not an option it would not
accommodate your CPU.
