    Big pile of 603e goodies

    sweet!! do keep in mind you might need to install a 3.3V regulator to use these 6360/6400/5400 boards in a stock 6200/5200.

    is it worth doing the takky mod in 2026?

    just got a very cheap 5300 board on ebay in case i couldn't get the 6360 one working (i know it needs a 3.3V relay of some sort)... just need to solder on a new CPU because the one on the board was damaged. luckily i have a spare CPU from a dead powerbook 5300c.

    yeah... it's hard to find the boards though.

    upgrading the ibook clamshell's L2 cache to 1MB

    hmmm that would be interesting... a 7447B (which is what i've got) ibook clamshell... lol the hardest part i think is getting the firmware to work with it. that would already be one hell of a performance boost from the G3/400... also, how would i get my hands on one of the interposers?

    upgrading the ibook clamshell's L2 cache to 1MB

    what would be a good voltage for 600mhz? do i have to use a custom cooling solution?

    upgrading the ibook clamshell's L2 cache to 1MB

    @LightBulbFun would it be possible to put the 7400 into an iBook clamshell? or should i go for the 7410

    upgrading the ibook clamshell's L2 cache to 1MB

    if thats the case, i'm lucky i have a few 7400s i can try reballing and then throwing on there lol

    upgrading the ibook clamshell's L2 cache to 1MB

    yeah it should have .bin at the end of it
  15. alectrona6400

    is it worth doing the takky mod in 2026?

    yeah i'm really considering doing this because i need to put my 6360 board to good use, also i don't see myself getting a more proper board upgrade anyway seeing as how expensive and rare they are now
