blackandblue Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 (edited) dump as much ram into it as you can, itll help heaps. I have a beige and a blue and white, and use them both for music and internet, but they are a touch slow for much else. You should be able to overclock the processor easily by simply moving a jumper. try and get a faster ZIF cpu off ebay, they go very cheap. a better pci video card will help a bit too. oh and you can get g4 zif cards too, but they are quite over priced, it would cost less to buy a g4 and cobble together the parts from the two.
