- With all these IIsi people changing from 20 -> 25 MHz, I've been
- wondering about the Q700. There used to be a product from Newer
- Technologies that would speed the 25MHz 68040 to 33MHz. A heat sink
- was provided and you could adjust the speed from the control panel.
-
- Does anyone know of this product? Does anyone know if it's safe?
-
- One more thing, I think Daystar puts out a 128K cache out for the
- quadras. However, I understand that Motorola estimates 93% hit rate
- for the 2 4K caches on the 040. Has anyone used this product? Does
- it speed up anything at all? How accurate are Motorola's estimates?
-
- Thanks,

- BTW, is anyone else thinking that the bandwidth on the mac.hardware
- board is getting to large?
