The general consensus is that the DEC 3000 model 900 was the biggest in
the DEC 3000 line. The only option would be to perform a "box-swap" (i.e.
purchase a newer server: Alphaserver 4100, ES40, etc...). Tom Linden
suggested I might check the axp-list about overclocking CPU's on these
systems ( With extra big-fans/cooling systems of course! :) ).
Thanks again to all who replied..

We have two Dec 3000 Model 900 Deskside workstations (running Tru64 4.0e
/patchkit 1) with 275Mhz Alpha processors. I was wondering if anyone
has tried to upgrade these processors to an EV5/6 at faster than 300Mhz?
I've looked through the archives and I couldn't find anything specific
about upgrading the CPU's on these systems. I'd appreciate any advise on
this subject.
Thanks in advance.
