there are a number of processor upgrades on the market. I understand that pci type accelerators are ill advised for audio processing, but what about the ones where you swap it for your old processor. does anyone on the forum have any experience of using say sonnet st g4 upgrades? this is going tto be the only way to improve my digioo1 system on powermac g4agp400 on my budget with a mortgage to pay and a baby due in may.
thank you |

Your right the PCIs are crap. They will use up your processer and then switch over to the other. A very PC way of daul processing. Sonnet makes good products> Check the bus speed on your G4 and make sure it can handle the upgrade you want. If the bus is slow enough the upgrade want do much. I think you can get way with a 1 ghz upgrade.
