Now available is a processor card sporting the Motorola 7447 running at 1Ghz or more.


So what is it, 1GHz or more?  :-P

@ Olegil

The Pegasos G4 will use the Motorola 7447 CPU, which seems to be pretty much exactly the same CPU as the 7457 (click on the links for info), except from the fact that the 7447 doesn't support L3 cache. So I guess there will be no L3 cache on the backside!

In any case, on the Pegasos G4 page it says to contact bbrv directly if you're interested in the G4/Pegasos1 combination.


Yes. The Peg1 and G4 are sold in "matched sets". The reason for this can be found in this thread.

Ah, ok. That's a rather bit drawback for those who already own a Peg1, isn't it? There's like 50% chance it will work on their board, is it?


Nah, since you trade in your entire motherboard and get a perfectly working "matched set" in return, there is a 100% chance that it will work! :-)
