My own IIcx Logic Board

Posted by: Brooklyn on 2013-03-09 13:18:27 Got my IIcx board back with 8 new SIMM slots, now socketed CPU, and new caps. Awesome! Shout out to mcdermd for doing a kickass job! 😉 I have the Daystar Powercache adapter for the IIcx that plugs into the CPU socket, as soon as I find a Powercache I'm going to try out this rarity. Side note, I have 6 Apple branded 1mb ram simms for this system, I'd like to find another 2 to have 8 matching Apple simms, does anyone have 2 for sale/trade?

Posted by: uniserver on 2013-03-09 14:55:23 wow that is really great, did you get the socket and ram slots from a parts se/30 board? was the socketed cache made for the IIcx or was it designed for the se/30? it would be nice to know if it works out for you!!

Posted by: Brooklyn on 2013-03-09 15:30:55 The socket was from the Daystar Adapter kit, they included it because some IIcx's were not socketed. Half of the simm slots came from a Performa 600, the other half from another parts board. I just have the powercache adapter that it meant to adapt a universal powercache card specifically to a IIcx by using the CPU socket.

Posted by: uniserver on 2013-03-09 18:20:37 does it use the cache card from a IIci? or its own cache card? pretty cool!

Posted by: mcdermd on 2013-03-09 18:25:08 The Daystar Power Cache was an upgrade card unto itself. The Daystar Universal Power Cache was made to work with several different models by way of various adapters. viewtopic.php?f=16&t=17092
