Title: Wanted: Sonnet Crescendo PCI card, G4/700+ MHz
Post by: ziggy29 on October 06, 2016, 09:40:29 AM
Looking for one of these for the PCI Power Mac series (7300-9600).  Must be in good, fully working condition with a G4 processor and at least 700 MHz (the faster the better). 

If you have one, please PM with description and asking price.

There's one on ebay right now for the amazing low, low price of only $450 !!

For this kind of money, you can buy 3 entire MDDs…

Be sure that the upgrade card isn't a PCI upgrade card but a processor slot card for a PCI Mac.

Yeah, I know, thanks.  I already have a slower Crescendo in the CPU card slot.  Just want to get it a little faster running Tiger.  And the prices asked on eBay right now are beyond absurd.
