700Mhz G4 PowerMac...

[Windowsrookie]

I was wondering what you guys think I can get for a 700Mhz PowerMac G3 B&W upgraded with an XLR8 G4 CPU upgrade (600mhz, overclocked to 700mhz running 100% stable). It has 1Mb of cache so it can supposedly outperform 1Ghz G4 CPU's. It is a revision 2 so it supports more than 1 hard drive.

It also has 448Mb of RAM, 2 USB ports, 2 FireWire 400 ports, Audio in/out ports, Ethernet port, DVD/CDRW drive from an emac, ATI Rage 128 16mb, 6gb hard drive, white apple keyboard, and a Mighty Mouse.

It also has an extra PCI Ethernet card installed, and a PCI USB/FireWire card installed.

I'd have 10.4 freshly installed, but only include 10.2 (Boxed with manuals)

I'm wanting to get into Video editing and I'm trying to buy a new Intel iMac (mainly to dual boot).

I'm also wondering what I can get for the Mac OS 10 Public Beta CD/Folder/Manuals. (There is no dot on the folder or CD, just appeared because of the flash)

I would say about 400 to 500 dollars. (from poking around ebay) Did you paint it though or is that just a version I have never seen before?

Ack! What did you do to the poor thing?!? :eek:

Good luck selling it. :\

[Windowsrookie]

Yeah, it was painted. I was thinking of buying a G4 case for $50 on ebay and sticking it in there.

It was painted years ago (before the G4 upgrade) It actually looks better than the original colors...

[macleod]

That paint job was done very well. It is just the color that bothers me. I am impressed with how good the paint looks though. Good one WR!

[Windowsrookie]

Yeah, it would probably sell better in a G4 case. The original G4's used the same Motherboard layout as the B&W G3's so I could transfer it.

I decided to upgrade my G4 now. I purchased an ATI 7000 64Mb card, more ram and a hard drive. I also purchased a Quicksilver case. I know I'll have to do some modding to get it to work, But it will look pretty. :)

Nice paint job. I'd keep it if I were you, if only just to tinker with or as a machine to run old Classic software and games. Why don't you try putting a faster IDE PCI card or something in it? That way you could also use it as a file or music server.

I'm working on a little "project". :) Should be completed next week. :D

I'm very curious to what it finally turns out to be :-) Oh it's like watching grass grow. And I'm not talking bamboo!
