i was amaze on how so many things can affect reliability.
reliability is the key and is what iv fixed with improved componets. changing componets alone does not fix everything there are a few others.
my system does not lock-up,suffer from random crashs.
i do not like sockets and i don't recommend them,and from my point of veiw should be left for testing purpose only but i do have a special A1200 motherboard which must be protected so many of chips can be changed on-a-fly (this includes the tiny 20pin chip located on the bottom left near the PCMCIA socket) as most are in sockets.
motherboard is modifyed to last a life time.
same rule applys to my Blizzard PPC/Bvision combo,so i can do pretty much what i want (with-in reason) without risk of damage.
off topic: in another thread their say the Blizzard PPC/Bvision is to slower than Cyberstorm/Cvision,this depends on which Cyberstorm. my Blizzard PPC card is faster than a Cyberstorm 200Mhz and is not far behind a 233Mhz Cyberstorm and should hold number one spot in the world for *GFX performance only* (high speed PCI Bus)on classic PPC combo regardless if a Cyberstorm is clocked @400Mhz.
