@ActionRetro You have to print a Power Macintosh \ 9600/1000 badge ;)
I went for the PowerMac G4 MDD for #MARCHintosh running Sorbet Leopard (with some Adélie Linux in another partition).
... and you don't like to have a wind tunnel on your desk.
I constantly had >68'C [154'F] when under 100% CPU load for more than an hour. I replaced all fans with Noctua but had to add one additional 92mm fan on top of the 120mm and 2 x 60mm behind the CPU heat sink to get everything under control.
Finally done with the WarGames 1:12 scatch build scale model of WOPR! 🤖
PowerBook 3400c, Mac OS 9.1, Internet Explorer 5, Frogfind ...
@stux This is a very sad time when the horrible past is forgotten or perverted. I live 25 minutes away from the concentration camp Dachau - they all should visit at some point.
@xodium I have a perfectly working PB 3400 - so, I am lucky. I tried to find someone who could build a battery for it, but no luck.
My Quadra 700 is working fine, as long as there is no sound played, then it freezes up. I have tried replacing the tantalum caps around the sound chip but had no luck. Any advice what I could try?
