WTB: CPU upgrade for PowerMac G4 Digital Audio 466

[Capt. 2110]

I'm looking for anything that will run with the original heatsink and mount points. I'm looking for anything over 550 MHz, but I don't wanna have to pay too much more than $20, as the CPU upgrade isn't too important to my DV tape project, and if I have to pay more than ~$20, I'd rather spend the money on a new GPU or RAM.

Thanks!

You can generally get CPU modules for G4s, but they're going to be way more than $20.

Some QuickSilver G4s can be used in a DA machine with minor modifications, these are probably your best bet.

3rd party upgrades are near unobtanium at this point, and are going to be very expensive if you ever track one down.
