Can you replace the processor from the 466 with a 733 from a Digital Audio Mac G4? What about the processor from a quicksilver 733 or 800? Wil the computer still be as fast a 733 or is the motherboard different between models?

Thanks

The 466 Mhz G4 has a 133 Mhz bus, as do quicksilver G4a so it should work.

I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.
 
I heard that there was some sort of issue with needing to run an extra 12v power cable or something.

Any ideas?
