Upgrade your eMac

Check out this website. The guy modified his eMac from 800mhz G4 to 1.33mhz G4!!! OMG!
http://www.lbodnar.dsl.pipex.com/eMac/eMac-upgrade.html
He also provides some good insight into the expansion capabilities in the iMac.

Cool. I got an 800 MHz upgrade for my Sawtooth 350, that just reminded me I meant to try and overclock it. I think it goes up to about 1.4 in theory but bumping it up a few hundred MHz would be nice.

I noticed on another site that people had managed to squeeze G4s into Colour Classics too!

You can go to that site to see what how to adjust the jumpers to 1.4. The guy said that his computer locked up after a few minutes (seconds?) when he overclocked to 1.4 and said 1.33 was stable.

To put a G4 in a Classic, you probably need to use the frame of a cube.
