Sawtooth in a B&W case
Posted by: jruschme on 2010-01-04 20:12:16
Anybody ever try putting a Sawtooth motherboard in a B&W case?

Since it looks like the motherboard in my B&W is dead, I'm thinking it would make more sense just to move to an AGP G4.

Any gotchas? It seems like I should be okay as long as I also get the back panel. (It looks like the PSU is the same pinout... I assume the front panel is also, correct?)

Thanks...

John

The very early sawtooth used the same psu as the B&W. Most sawtooths had two more pins on the connector.

If you want to make a trip down to Deptford I have a B&W board with a 400mhz chip you can have for free. I have a power supply too if you want it.

Sorry to take so long to get back to you, but is this still available?

I realized that Deptford is too far for a single-purpose trip, but I'm going to be staying over for a couple of nights in Cherry Hill next week (4 day meeting in Camden) and could pop over one evening if possible.

Thanks...

John
