Sweeeet. Dual 1.2GHz G4 a reality.

As long as you don't mind overclocking. And remember, YMMV. If 1.2GHz is a possible frequency, maybe the 7455 is MHz friendly.

Dual 1330s...
But if the new G4's are over-clock friendly, does that mean we'll see higher speeds sooner, rather than later?
Eugene, time to get a big fan just like the PC over-clockers use. Buying a dual Ghz, and boosting it to a dual 1.33 after the warantee expires would provide quite a nice little boost.
And the thing is loud enough as it is.

The Gamma 30 and Gamma 32 move way more air but are much bigger.
I would definately need a quieter yet more powerful fan, and maybe some other method of cooling.
I'll see how I feel about it after it get's here.
You can probably put a Delta "Black Label" in there and get ~40 CFM from that one fan alone. It'll sound like a turbine though.

So will the fan Outsider is talking about provide more cooling, and yet be quieter than the stock fan?
If you want to increase your cooling, you're probably going to have to sacrifice noise...unless you're willing to jury-rig some extra fans or make some case mods to put a bigger fan on the heatsink...
Lots of PC users use ducting with larger fans sucking in outside air and focusing that air on certain components. This an incredibly bad idea unless you have a good filter keeping dust and lint out. With the dual 1 GHz, you can probably add a 40 or 50 mm fan on the side of the heatsink.
If you don't have any PCI cards, you might be able to add an intake fan where the slot openings are...That might disrupt the circulation inside the case though, considering the 120 mm exhaust fan is right there already.
The biggest problem is not having a way to read CPU temps and gauge whether the modifications are effective or ineffective...or even detrimental...

since i have one i want to know, maybe even get it up to 700mhz, i would love that. <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" />
The max multiplier on the 7455 is 16x.
Anyone know what it is on the new iMac? (then perhaps we can have an idea of when it will go 133 Mhz)
