There's a store nearby and I think I can get a single 1.25 ghz daughter card from a MDD fairly cheap. I have a Dual 1.00 ghz MDD with a burnt out processor. I've googled and found articles going from a Single to Dualie but not the other way around. Anyone have an idea?
I don't know, that was the way it came. What I think happened was the heat sink pulled away from the processor, so the processor with no cooling burnt itself out. The replacement I bought has a fresh coat of Arctic Silver.
Didn't there used to be a G4 daughterboard of some sort that could run 2 unbalanced G4 CPU's, i.e a 350 mhz and a 450 mhz. Always imagined that could be useful if you could find a cheap supply of CPU's.
Yes there was - it was briefly marketed as an upgrade for the Beige G3 (not slot compatible with AGP graphics G4s). I think it was pulled for power and/or reliability issues. You can still find a review of it on xlr8yourmac.com
I looked a little for that upgrade. I couldn't find it. Anyone want to point me toward it. I have heard rumor of it for a while. I remember doing a bit more research on it a long time ago, but could use a refresh.
