Finally got my hands on one of these! I have a IIci case, a dremel and a plan...! If anyone has a power mac 7100 logic board, I'll take that off your hands, too. For now, this grotty bastard is going for a wash...!

Can confirm - just plopped a DIP20 socket into the ZIF just fine. Oooh, I can play Battleship! 🤣

An array of 288 of these: https://www.mouser.co.uk/ProductDetail/Mill-Max/1508-0-00-15-00-00-03-0?qs=X3dlXJsz9DBW7AsUsHBewg== ? or https://www.mac8japan.com/uploads/entry_meta/file_value/6520/en_2018a_dh-dhs.pdf

YOU ABSOLUTE LEG-END! *proceeds to purchase 2 just in case*

Bit of a frustrating one this - i'm looking for the part number of the ZIF socket used in the G3 and G4 Yikes models. I know its PGA-288 but they seem to just not exist! The one i have is an AMP branded one - i just snapped the heatsink mount off it 🤦‍♂️

Oooh. So that would attach to a generic 44-pin header though, right?

@Zane Kaminski what *is* the part number for the original connector? I've been unable to source it at all!

Something i've been working on, is a list of all the Apple Custom ASIC's, where they're used, and also the pinouts of the chips in question. I've started with the Compact Macs so far, but i'll be expanding this over time. If anyone has access to internal Apple datasheets for any of these parts...

I always get consistently good results from Retrobriting this way - I just wish i had some spare Apple badges! Also for the chassis and metal parts - i found leaving them in my ultrasonic bath at 70*c for an hour, then hitting them with a 15 minute full sweep of ultrasonic cleaning made it look...

The way i see it, the forum is only 12 days old, officially. Yes, there are some empty categories so far, but give it time :)

That's not even the electrolyte, that's the solder mask that's become black because of the electrolyte, it's seeped underneath and eaten it from beneath.

I have that on a lot while i work....or cook. Rarely have anything on while eating though, my wife & i prefer to chat :)

Yep its missing the BBU and the SCC looks toast. I can send you a spare BBU, but the SCC you can buy new. It may also require you to get a Reloaded SE board, if the trace and pad damage is as severe as i think it is.

Stickied!

I'm imagining you opening up a trench coat and going "pssst, you wanna zip drive? It's totally legit, promise..." 🤣

Oh it's more than likely that it's crispy concrete by now, but sonnet make their heatsink screws out of alloy cheese -_-

Thinking about it, the BBU does have issues wth two chip 1MB SIMM's - i seem to recall i knew why, but i can't place the reason why...

I've seen a few heatsinks like this - mostly on the DA and Quicksilver models. I can take more detailed pics later this weekend, as it is though, i've got a buggered wrist that's not making things easy! The countertops are a lie - veneer over chipboard ;)
