The Apple G5 that I bought used recently, is the most low end G5. It only has 4 memory slots. Memory DIMMs must be inserted in matched pairs. When I got it, it had two 128 megs and two 512 meg DIMMs for a total of 1.25 GIG of RAM. Yesterday I got a pair of 1 GIGs at FRYs on sale and switched them for the two 128s, for a total of 3.0 GIGs of RAM.
I wasn't sure it would make a big difference. It does. It is a lot faster. It wasn't a big expense and it yielded a big improvement. If I got two more 1 GIGs I could bring the RAM up to a total of 4 GIGs. Maybe later. I'm good for now.
