If you ever let go of the 120MHz models or mobos, let me know. My case says 120MHz, but the mobo is only 80. It'd be nice to make them match.One of these days I'll get all this stuff sorted out and offer up the excess for sale.
Don't forget, just because they aren't listed on the fansites doesn't mean they don't exist. I saw a WGS 8550/200 recently and had to check LEM to make sure it was legit. There's a brief mention of the 8550 at the top of the 8500 entry, but no mention of a 200mhz CPU in the text. It only shows a 120 or 180mhz model. The 200mhz card isn't listed until you go to the 8600 page. There were also machines that weren't sold in all markets that there may not be a lot of information available on. I also recently saw a PM 8200 on ebay Germany which is the 7200 motherboard mounted in the godawful 8100/8500 case and those weren't sold in North America and maybe not in some other markets, either.Here we go. According to my notes, I have a PM9100/120 S/N XB51800V4US, a WGS9150/120 and a WGS9150/80 S/N XC44405V36R in the attic. I kind of wonder if the first two listings aren't the same machine, since I failed to list the serial number for the WGS9150/120 and LCGuy says there never was a 9100, only 9150s. Still, there might be three up there...
I also have a a 9150/80 motherboard on hand and my notes say that the 9150/80 has a burn spot in the middle, but it seems to work okay.

Someone in another thread was asking about changing the 9150/80 from 2X the bus speed ( 2 X 40MHz = 80 MHz) to 3X and running the bus more slowly.I have an 80MHz version.
That was me, ojfd, I wanted to downclock several PM8100/100 and 110Someone in another thread was asking about changing the 9150/80 from 2X the bus speed ( 2 X 40MHz = 80 MHz) to 3X and running the bus more slowly.
So, You're the one behind the Turbo601/66 chipping project mentioned on Schreier's page? If so, is it enough to just pull respective clock ratio pins on ICS9178 low or high to get the desired effect?Adding an ICS9178 is also how one converts the Turbo601/66 into a Turbo601/100 (well more like 90 to 96).
Not great.TRAQ: How are the conditions in your attic? Humidity and heat/cool cycles are hell on plastics.
Yes, I did the Turbo601/66 chipping project and the article on Schrier's page. I sold the thing some years ago and bought a refurbished Power Computing Power 120 with the proceeds (and some extra cash).So, You're the one behind the Turbo601/66 chipping project mentioned on Schreier's page?
