The Quicksilver has one Ultra-ATA and one IDE connector. See attached image..….connect your HD to the Ultra-ATA for optimal speed.

And it is a fully functional gsm phone…..not just a 3D printed decoration

Not using 13w3 at all as I only have the TPD 2 card, not the display. I am trying to get it run on a Dell 22“ TFT that works quite well with all those old video signals from Toby, Futura SX etc….. I only have a 15“ Nokia Multisync Trinitron CRT, a bunch of Apple 13“/14“ and an Apple 16“ fixed...

Thanks for the valuable input. Thinking of this one from Amazon - guess it will work. Also checking for the pin outs for DB9 equipped cards like the Miro Prisma nubus graphics adapter. But sadly, DB9 was not standardized unlike DB15 Mac or VGA. The good old days when dealers/resellers and...

Interested, too

@Trash80toHP_Mini thanks for the link to your post. the mac rescue of denver was the only reference that I‘ve found as well. Let me see whether i can cheat a VGA cable to combine RGB to one.

Just optained a nice Q650 with a Toby and Radius TPD II Card. I have not found any specific info about the card. I guess, it is a 1-bit card and runs at 1152x870 as this is the standard apple two page resolution. however, I can‘t get it to run without a greenish screen. I am using the 2 row 8...

The IIfx used DMA, but AFAIK it is only used unter AU/X and not the standard Mac OS. The 1. gen PowerMac introduced DMA to the Mac OS…. (But not the PPC performas based on 68k mobo designs)

There was no public software I know of. I will check whether I still find the documentation for the CPLD that we used to program clock, bus and delay. But it may take some time. It‘s been 25 years since I worked on it.

As @trag mentioned, Hammerhead could be adjusted for bus timings and memory timings. The CPU card (JoeCARD) that I co-developed used a microcontroller to adjust multiplier, bus speed and delay. The latter means it adjusted Hammerhead‘s registers to match the requested bus speed. Other...

Right, PCI Bus (Bandit IC) and processor bus run independently and asynchronous. However, for higher bus speeds, you sometimes have to adjust bus delay. Not all CPU upgrades support that feature. In addition, lots of ram puts lots of stress or load on the memory bus. It may not be ram that fails...

Kansas used double the bus speed for the cache. Thus the cache rus at 100mhz vs. Tsunami‘s 50 Mhz. And yes, despite the FPU, the G3 was overall faster than the 604ev In real world Mac OS use.

For 60 - 66 Mhz bus speed, you needed 60 ns RAM as 70ns RAM might be too slow. I have never tried any 50ns Ram and I guess it may has not been widely used as the industry moved fast to SD RAM with 66 Mhz and above. To answer your question, the majority of tsunami testbeds were based on Umax...

Can you link to that article? As far as i remember, only the Catalyst (7200) based units - namely the PowerCenter, PowerCenter Pro, PowerCurve, PowerTower - really can run at up to 60 Mhz if the CPU runs at an even multiple of 60. However, they never worked reliably with the G3 and G4 cards...

I remember those days in the late 90s when i had dozens of TNT and Tsunami mainboards mounted on racks to test our G3/G4 cards that sported dials to adjust the bus speeds. I did experiments with them with edo and fpm and seem to remember that it was not the type but the speed that made the...

Has nobody any idea or info about those nubus cards?

Sorry for the confusion. The photos are generic. Cannot access my 475 right now to make a photo of the drive with the adapter.

I am using a 10€ 68pin to 50pin adapter from eBay in my 475 to run a seagate barracuda UW drive. Do yourseld a favor and use one with an extra Molex power socket. I decided to use an external power adapter for the HD as the power consumption was a bit high in an overclocked 475 with lots of ram...

I picked up a fully loaded IIci last week and finally had time to check its internals. Apart from the Apple 32k Cache Card and an Apple AAUI Network Card (no AAUI transceiver) there are two other Nubus cards inside. Miro Prisma 2.1 - Graphics card. I don´t exactly know about resolutions and...

Well, as mentioned above, the card is OHCI compliant. Without USB Card Support 1.4.1, the System Profiler only lists the card as three PCI Devices. With USB Card Support, the profiler shows 2 PCI USB Cards and 1 PCI Device. After applying the patch from @Phipli the Profiler shows the same, but...
