Wanting to upgrade processor on PowerMac G4
Hi, I have a (Graphite) PowerMac G4 350 mhz. It's a PowerPC 2.8 (AGP Graphics). I want to upgrade the Processor. I found this upgrade.... http://www.newertech.com/products/maxpower47.php Would this work for my specific Mac?
When I went to the OWC site for this processor, trying to find my specific PowerMac, they have a choice for a
PowerMac 1,2 -Apple PowerMac G4 PCI Graphics "YIKES" 350MHz 1999
or a
PowerMac 3,1 -Apple PowerMac G4 AGP Graphics "Sawtooth" 350MHz 1999
The thing that is confusing me is the numbers after the PowerMac... 1,2 and 3,1.......
mine is a PowerMac 2.8 G4 35MHz, AGP Graphics (Sawtooth? I am assuming in the name for the AGP Graphics)
I did ask their contact center and they told me no, my computer was not able to be upgraded...but with my computer having the AGP graphic, I don't see why not. So, I thought I would ask some Mac people that may have upgraded their G4 processors. This is kind of a hobby project for me.
Thanks in advanced.
