I think 350MHz was the fastest available processor.  If you google you'll find reference to a 400MHz unit but from what I can tell this was just two 200MHz 604e processors.
 
So it looks to me like 350MHz is the fastest 604e processor you could get hold of.  Still, a significant increase over 233MHz! And perhaps it could be overclocked slightly ;-)

are you sure thats the fastest.

i bet you i can make you edit your posting by uploading a photo.

i have two of them here in my hand awaiting a Cyberstorm PPC and i guarantee it to work.

are all of you sure 400Mhz is the fastest processor that may work in a Cyberstorm.

i know of one other *possible* processor that *may possibly* work and it`s not 400Mhz

i have the same 750 processor board as you,i did have the 604e board as well but i can`t find it.

if you can replace and solder a 360 BGA to a 255 BGA on a Cyberstorm i will call you LORD OF THE BGA.

you will become MASTER of the BGA and will be ranked higher than me,and if you can do it i will be on my knees.

but im also very skilled in BGA,i install them in almost manual mode just for fun and to keep my skill level up.

im just wondering why was the 604e attached to a Blizzard card and not the Cyberstorm?

i know he has a Cyberstorm with a non working PPC side.

?????


soldering to the Blizzard card is not to difficult due to the space around the BGA area,can`t say the same for a Cyberstorm.
