Sonnet PowerPC G4 , 1 GHz (SG4-1000-2M) Processor Upgrade

Pros: Great speed increase. No jumpers needed.

Cons: None, but I recommend installing a fan just to keep it cool.

The Bottom Line: Great Speed Increase, but you will need to add a better heatsink and fan, that are not included or mentioned by Sonnet.

Review: My PowerMac G4 400MHZ was in dire need of an upgrade. My applications were becoming far too demanding, so instead of purchasing a new G5 (too expensive for my budget right now), I decided to upgrade my G4.

I started by upgrading the hard...

Pros: Fairly easy to install, very distinct speed increase, works smoothly without any bugs.

Cons: May take a little more time to install than similar products for past machines.

The Bottom Line: Great hardware upgrade that delivers on its promise.

Review: Sonnet makes processor upgrade cards, among other products, for Macintosh computers. Over the years we've used several of their accelerator boards, all without a problem.

I bought this G4 board for a Power Mac G4 Digital Audio tower...
