I have two of the 1.25 mHz models. Went to 2 Gb RAM (Crucial) and four 250 hard drives. At the present time there are no upgrades; Apple did make a 1.42 mHz model, but have only seen a occasional party who will sell the model motherboard ($600, if I remember). I've had heat build up problems with both my units, despite adding PCI fans, so would agree with Jim that a newer model would be preferable. >>, >>Help >> I have a G4 Mirrored Drive 1GHZ dual. >>need to you it for VIDEO EDITING with my FCP studio HD >>what is my max upgrade for the item stated below >>and pls. do recommend and guide me specifically : Brand & model if any >>to get it running faster than it is. >> >>Processor Upgrade? >> >>RAM: max 512MB X 4pcs. right?.
