These cards are based on the latest PowerPC G4 processor (used in Apple’s current PowerBook line) from Freescale Semiconductor (formerly a division of Motorola), and feature 512K of on-chip L2 cache. Both upgrades are priced at US$499.95. The rest of the Encore/ST G4 single processor upgrades have been reduced in price from $20 to $100.
