Sonnet

™

 brings the G3 revolution to previously “upgrade-

challenged” Power Macintosh and Performa

®

 computers that were 

built with no processor upgrade slot. Through innovative 
engineering, Sonnet has designed the Crescendo/L2 G3 to be a 
“plug-and-play” processor upgrade card that installs into the L2 
backside cache slot of the computer. The Crescendo/L2 G3 
incorporates the revolutionary PowerPC

™

 G3 processor and its 

own ultra, high-speed Level 2 backside cache.

The Crescendo/L2 G3 seamlessly integrates with your system 
software supporting System 7.5.3 up to the latest innovations 
and enhanced performance of Mac

®

 OS 9.1 (as of January 2002).

The Crescendo/L2 G3 installs in minutes with step-by-step, 
illustrated instructions. Simply install the Crescendo software, 
open your computer, then insert the upgrade into the Level 2 
cache slot.
