I'll check into the 370 as suggested, thank you. I'm actually able to overclock my G3 to 350 MHz (originally at 233 MHz) but it crashes during bootup. At 300 MHz it boots fine but I get a LOT of Error type 2 (hardware inconsitancies).

I was hoping that cooling it down would yield at least usable performance at 350MHz. I'm trying to get everything I can out of this thing before I have to invest in a new computer. Rather difficult for a continuing student.

I didn't notice in my Macintosh Users' Forum that someone applied a watercooling system to a G4. That would seem more logical if anyone's seen the heatsink on those puppies. I hear they have heat problems so it the technology would seem more applicable there.

Thanks for the help,
