Have a 500MHz ST that is screaming for a new CPU. The extra RAM would be nice also.
Have a 32MB GeForce in there now, might be interested in something that supports quartz extreme.
Also, a HDD controller would be nice.
Please let me know what you have.

I currently am RMAing a 1 GHz Sonnet G4 CPU, and when its returned, it'll be up on the chopping block, because I have a Dual 1 GHz G4 Quicksilver coming on Monday.
Since its brand new, I was hoping to get around 140-150 shipped, since I want to turn around and pick up 2 or 3 used Radeon 9800s, for my G4 and a few other machines.
After I get the Radeon, I'll also have the stock GeForce4 card that shipped inside of the machine up for grabs too.
It goes for 175 plus shipping at macsales.com.

What kind of warranty would this come with? Would you have the original receipt? That's more than I was hoping to pay, but I bet we could work something out.

I dunno yet, and I dont have the original receipt, when it arrives, I'll figure out how long the warranty is.

Out of curiosity, what does a Radeon 9800 go for these days? I have a 32MB GeForce card in there now, would it be worth an upgrade at least to a 9200 or 8600?

PC ones go for around 50-60 on fleabay, or cheaper on like HardForum.
Flash the PC ones, tape the 3rd and 11th pin, and boom, one cheap Mac 9800.
I dont even want to think about what the costs of an offical 9800. :eek:

Wow, sounds pretty good. Do you ever sell these on the boards? I may be interested.
Anyway, let me know when that CPU comes in! :)

Haven't heard from Reanimation after I sent him a PM, so this is still an open ISO. :)
