Re: Quicksilver power supply
Is it possible to use a Quicksilver G4 power supply in a digital audio G4? No, 24 pins + 4 pins (two cables) in QS; 22 pins (one cable) in DA. Although the two are basically the same mobo (4 PCI slots, 3 RAM slots, similar processor location) the power distributions are quite different (separate 12 volt supply for the processor in a QS). -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Opps! Didn't you mean to start a new thread? Yes it is possible, see this user guide... http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/tips/MDD_ps_mods/MDD_PS_Mods.html Jay On Mar 29, 2:13 pm, Gene Henley mhenl...@verizon.net wrote: Is it possible to use a Quicksilver G4 power supply in a digital audio G4?

Re: Quicksilver power supply
Frgive me Gene, I think I misread your question. That guide is for the conversion of MDD PSU's to work in Quicksilvers and DA G4's. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: Quicksilver power supply
OK. I hope we understand that I refer to Quicksilver G4,not MDD. Discounting the requirement for separate 12v supply to processor, why cannot the Quicksilver be used?
