Overview:
The sleek Bauhaus inspired G5 comes in two different versions.
The G5 "Original" is a workstation with a single processor on each processor card. These Single Core "Original" G5's can come with either 1 or 2 processor cards and are the Single and Dual G5's. The original has either 4 or 8 memory slots. These "Original" single core G5's run DDR memory.
The G5 "Dual Core" is a workstation with two processor's in each processor card. These dual core G5's can come with either 1 or 2 processor cards that have two processors on each, and are Dual or Quad G5's. The dual core G5's have 8 memory slots which can each hold a maximum of 2Gig, for a system maximum of 16Gigs. These "Dual Core" G5's run DDR2 memory.
DDR vs. DDR2:
Do you have the "Original" G5 that runs DDR, or the "Dual Core" G5 that runs DDR2? Refer to our DDR vs. DDR2 Guide
ECC vs. Non-ECC:
ECC memory is usually used in mission critical applications like servers, but Apple is now making it available to G5 workstations! ECC stands for Error Correction Code. This type of memory uses an extra parity bit to detect and correct some types of memory errors. In order to run ECC, all installed DIMMs must be the ECC type. You can mix ECC and Non-ECC, but the ECC function will be disabled.
Matched Sets:
In order to provide you wih optimal performance and stability, all of our G5 kits are configured with matched modules.
