The Quadra 840av was the first 68040 Mac to break the 33 MHz barrier. Based on the 40MHz 68040 processor, and housed in a Quadra 800-style case, the 840av included AV features similar to its younger sibling, the [[Macintosh Quadra 660av]]. However, it's AT&T 3210 DSP ran at a faster 66 MHz. It also included one Geoport, and sold for $3,550, which was inexpensive for what was, at the time, the fastest Mac ever.
Codenames: Quadra 1000, Cyclone. Originally shipped with [[System 7.1]] and system enabler 088 v1.0.

RAM consists of dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) on 72-pin Single Inline Memory Modules (SIMMs). Each SIMM contains one or two banks of DRAM with up to 16 MB of capacity per bank. The DRAM in the Macintosh Quadra 840AV must have an access time of not more than 60 ns.
