[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1097942, member: 56379"] Stop talking & just do it!;) If the dual G4 cpu daughter-card fits...just plug it in & see if the computer operates & is stable. If it isn't stable...then the swap won't work...it if is stable...it works!:) Cooling really isn't even an issue...cause most of these "cpu daughter cards" have their own heat sink strapped to them...and both computers you're talking about (single G4 & dual G4)...use the same case design & same cooling system...so over-heating isn't an issue either. Just give it a try...it's not like your computer will explode or something.;) - Nick [/QUOTE]
