overclock ibook g4
Posted by: indibil on 2025-02-04 22:55:08
Hi, I recently purchased an iBook G4 1.33GHz, 133MHz bus, if I'm not mistaken, it's an "early-2004". I wanted to try overclocking but my motherboard doesn't have the PLLs where this link indicates:

overclock iBook G4

Does anyone have the location and configuration of the PLLs for my version?

It's an iBook that uses DDR RAM, so would it be possible to overclock the bus to 167MHz?

Thanks.

the Broadcom chip is down left but the pll location seems different?
there are two different 1,33Ghz ibook G4, 12" and 14", maybe theres a softmod overclock possibility?

Exactly, the PLL is not there, it is a variant of the previous motherboard.

Hmm, if you manage to overclock it somehow, let us know. I have the same iBook G4.
