Hi there
Looking for a second hand mac and was wondering if anyone could give me some idea of what i could expect for £1000? Also What does duel 1gz mean.Does that mean two 500 processor to make 1gz or there is two 1gz processors in the machine to make a 2gz machine? |

i got the kit. its ok. cathode, "high end ball bearing fans"? the 120mm fan that you got as replacement is the best out there. Papst fans are the quietest aroud. if you do find a quieter one lemme know! know what you mean though - the rumbling can get on your nerves. and if you intend to use OS9 like i do, be prepared to either shell out on the bose noise cancelling headphones or turn the amp way the fuck UP, as the fan speed regulation under OS9 is a joke - fan speed is up and down, up and down all the time, so you can never ignore it. im seriously considering shelling out for the Verax kit, but $109 for two 60mm fans??? apple peeps always have to shell out more...
