I'm thinking more along the lines of 70MHz on 'first revision' versus 80 or 90MHz on the 'second revision' cards. They're still Rage 128GL gpus though. I don't remember them being particularly highly clocked. I remember an article on Xlr8yourmac mentioning the clock speed difference but its...

Nah, it was just a slightly higher clocked Rage 128.

The heatsink-ed Rage 128 is most likely clocked higher than the non heatsink one. It came with Revision 2 Blue&White G3s.

Finally got that spare PI setup as a router for my 'older' ethernet devices.

Are you sure? I have a 8169 card in my Powerbase and it connects to my gigabit network in OS 9. I doubt it can actually push that much data, though.

Unless you overclock your 605, any 040 you put n is going to run at just 25MHz.

Yeps, in was new in box. Probably from some unsold pallet of them somewhere. Came with both vga and Mac adapters/dongles.

I swear that fan in the Mini used to work. Now nothing. Plus, it stops in the Opencore bootup.

Time to drop Sonoma on the ole 2009 Mac Mini.

Is it the ThunderPower version of the Thunder card. It had the solder pads but no connector for the optional DSP board. I used it for a bit in my 0S 9.1 Powerbase for a while. It worked fine but had a sync on green problem. I think I used the Radiusware drivers.

Finally grabbed my working Newton power adapter to confirm my eMate still works.

Yes it is. I forget wether its one word or two (MachSpeed versus Mach Speed).

Have you tried something like Daystars Mach Speed Tools instead of CPUDirector?

From what the page says, anything less seems to run it too slow. That's why it needs PPC-native Hypercard.

Ack, my bobo vram I got from something has gone... bad

Im just thinking off the top of my head, but I believe all the Pro models were 60MHz capable. Edit: Lowendmac says just the PowerCenter and PowerCenter Pro and Power Tower. Power Conputing probably used the same components as Apple. They just 'certified' them to run up to 60Mhz. Mind you...

Family life, man. I'm lucky to have time to even look at my classic Macs.

Plus, should flashed cards be included? Pictures of the cards, for identifying? Its a good start and definitely something that needs to be done.

I wouldnt read too much into the model names from this or any period. They really dont signify anything. The 9100 was an 8500 and faster than the 9200. The 9200 was basically a 9000. The 9500s were faster than 9600s, and were just a cut down 9700. These were just terms tacked onto to sell...
