Which upgrade is this?

Quick question for the best folks on Macrumors, which CPU upgrade is this. Came across this in a local sale site. Current owner knows nothing about the machine.

Kind of looks like one of the OWC branded 800Mhz-1.2Ghz G4's.

Hard to tell by the look of it, also looks like a SilImage ATA card in the PCI slot with a USB card too.

I had a gigadesigns 1.2GHz upgrade that was similar in color, except the heat sink was totally flat with a small fan.

Those Sawtooth cases made for tight clearances to the heat sinks.

From this appears to be an OWC Mercury Extreme G4:

I had a Sonnet 1.6ghz (single processor) with a heat sink just like that.

Sonnet are usually purple?

No idea. The heat sink for mine was gold. But the processor was definitely a Sonnet.
