    Macintosh 68060 Redux

    On the contrary, your voltage and ram timing tweaks are pretty impressive! Getting the best results from an 060 on a wombat clearly require a lot of experimentation and refinement, throwing the cpu in and getting it to work is just the beginning.

    So, I’m a 68030?

    Macintosh IIcx + PowerCD 600e = are they compatible?

    I don’t quite see how they could stop you using it on a IIcx - it seems like more of a recommendation.

    Macintosh SE/30 replace processor MC68030RC16B to MC68030RC30C

    I’ve never heard of any problems with 68k Motorola chips with XC prefixes. I think most of the ones Apple shipped were labelled XC, since the validation process could take quite some years.

    Bitcoin Mining on Mac Classic

    They said that it would take 1 trillion years at current rates, but because the rate keeps changing it would take forever.

    Replacement Power Supply in Quadra 605

    Oh, I should probably do this. The PSU is isolated from the case because it’s on a 3D printed stand-off.

    MacFlim - how can I prepare a video file for it?

    iMac G3 (Rev A -> C) G4 CPU Upgrade

    That your upload helped, or that the finding is useful? :) In general, have we figured out how the ratio selection works? I’m guessing it would be possible to create a utility that calculates code for the EEPROM with options for cache size and ratio at a given clock speed.

    iMac G3 (Rev A -> C) G4 CPU Upgrade

    Thank you for providing these, I used the Wallstreet EEPROM on my heavily modded iMac/233 CPU board so it would recognise the full 1MB cache I'd soldered on. Note the following findings for cache ratios: CPU Speed (MHz) Bus Speed (MHz)Cache Ratio 300662:1 3001003:2 (see photo) 3501002:1

    Replacement Power Supply in Quadra 605

    Here's my finished PSU rebuilt – tested and perfectly working. it's amazing how, presumably just by coincidence, these Mean Well units feel like they're almost perfectly designed for the LC PSU housings. With thanks to @Yodd for sharing their excellent mounting plate design, which I got printed...

    Replacement Power Supply in Quadra 605

    Quick tip when rebuilding a Dyna Comp, keep the heatsink/bracket from the original PCB, shorten it and reuse it so that the top cover can screw in on both ends.

    Power Mac 6500 USB and ethernet cards

    This is what @Phipli meant when he said PCI USB Option.

    Performa 550 won’t boot (bad logic board)

    The HD sounds like a Quantum with stuck heads due to a sticky bumper.
