I have a 466mhz digital audio g4, and fancy overclocking it. First; where can I find the ddata on jumper settings? (last time I looked, all i could find was settings for the 533 daughtercard) Second; Is it likely that the chip would survive a bump upward?

What sort of application would I run in OSX to load test the chip? What app tells me a reliable CPU temp?

that link is for the wrong cpu. the 466 is the 7400 card; so the pll's listed aren't right. bummer, too.. that would've helped.

That's too bad. That guy has a *lot* of different machines on his page. E-mail him and see if you can get any information, I guess.

Good luck!
