I think this question could be better answered on the LEM G-List but
I unsubscribed because of the list nanny. Anyway, I'll give it a
shot here. I decided to buy a Blue & White G3 350 and a G4 upgrade
card for it (G4 500 mhz). I did see an article or two about
overclocking it also. What I am wondering is if I can install the G4
card and still overclock the system bus or is this a bad idea. I
basically bought this computer because I like to 'tinker' around but
I wouldn't dream of doing it on my present Macs that I 'really' use.
The whole computer was only $189, so if I end up killing it, it's no
huge loss but I'd like to end up with a fast usable computer. I also
bought one of the Sonnettech Aria wireless cards for it and I'm going
to use an old 19 inch VGA monitor that I had left over from my PC
days (it's a Gateway).
So, would overclocking AND upgrading the CPU be a bad idea or not?
Thanks for any input on this. Also any links you might think of
would be appreciated.
Tim
