This G3 processor upgrade offers a 300MHz G3 CPU with 1MB of backside cache running on a 200MHz cache bus. It is designed for the PowerMac 7300, 7500, 7600, 8500, 8600, 9500, 9600; UMAX J700 and S900 series; Power Computing PowerCenter, PowerCenter Pro, PowerTower, PowerTower Pro, PowerWave and PowerCurve.

The Mac Observer Spin: The current round of price cuts coming from Newer, Sonnet, Powerlogix, and XLR8 are making it cheaper than ever to get more power out of your PowerMac. This card is particularly attractive because the cache is running at a higher speed than many of the higher MHz rated cards can.
