Yooo,
After weeks, I managed to finally collect the following:
Three MDD Towers (1.42DP FW800, and two 1.25DP FW400)
Spare motherboard
Extra 1.25DP CPU card and a Single 1.25 CPU card
Have the Following video cards:
Radeon 8500 64MB
x2 Radeon 9000 PRO (From which came with the MDDs)
x2 Radeon 9200SE (Both 64MB)
Think I might of overspent for it all, but I feel it was worth spending. I want to do several testing among the hardware and see the differences and improvements with mixing certain CPUs/Video cards. I will OC the single 1.25 to 1.5 and see how it holds against a 1.25DP that has 2MB cache each CPU (Yes I know MOS uses 1 cpu) and up against the 1.42DP card.
Anyone have program recommendations to really test out the hardware and gets numbers so I can do some comparisons? I know some hardware testing has been done already, but this is for the Mac MDD hardware lineup. I won't be testing the 877mhz or the 1ghz due to the fact they were only 133FSB.

Either way, Look forward to testing and getting some results!
