I have a turbo040 card in my Performa 600 that I am trying to build into a Super 68k Nubus machine. It registers in every info tool I've tried in Mac OS as 40MHz, even in the QuadControl 2.2 panel. The CPU is clearly a XC68040HRC33M however - a 33MHz chip. The Oscillator can is 20MHz and I have read up that 20MHz cans on these cards make them run at 40MHz. I highly doubt the oscillator has been changed as the soldering is far too neat and there are no marks that indicate it's ever been removed.

Was Daystar overclocking these chips at the factory?
