Will my accelerated Centris or Quadra also accelerate my PowerPC PDS upgrade card?
The PDS card doubles the speed of the 68040 on the motherboard, so you can up-clock those cards simply by up-clocking the motherboard itself. Most of the PowerPC PDS cards will go to 72-76 MHz with a fan cooling the 601. If you try to up-clock one of these cards in a Centris or Quadra machine, you will need an 18 or 19 MHz oscillator for your socket as well as a “PDS Chiller” to cool off your PPC card. We have special kits for these models that include the right oscillators and CPU fans. Please see our product list for more details.
