I have a G4 733 Digital Audio.

Would it be posible to slap a dual Ghz chip into my computer.

When they say break the 2 Ghz, could you take out your old chip and put one of thoes in?

dual 1ghz: yes.

2ghz: unknown. The bus speed of the motherboard, other architectural changes may take place when a 2ghz is introduced, so there's no good way to predict compatibility.
If this post is in the Lounge forum, it is likely to be my own opinion, and not representative of the position of MacNN.com.
