Pros: Speed and stability. Compatibility with RAM and other PCI cards. Easy installation.
Cons: Additional software necessary in a G3 Beige. Not as fast as a real G4 500.
The Bottom Line: Recommended because of the speedboost, the stability and the compatibility and because it's cheaper than other G4 ZIFs
Review: Installation is a breeze. Instructions are very clear. Open your Mac, remove the heatsink and replace the original processor by this one. In a G3 Beige, you'll need cache enabler software and you have to install a special Startup disk X control panel. ...
