Hi All,

I have had a G4 DP867 for about 4 months now which i upgraded to 2gb ram from 1Gb and it made a noticeable difference. Now has 260gb Disk space ( 120/80/60gb )

However it is still a bit sluggish and problematic when trying to convert DV video to Divx/Xvid. it takes a couple of days to render a 60gb job and somtimes it just stops responding ( iMovie )

Is it worth my while upgrading the CPUs and what to ? DP 1.2ghz ?

and what should i look out for ?

If not then i think i will have to go for an entry level G5 DP1.8 is that also worth while.

even if you have no advise thanks for reading :)
