I can't answer your question as to which CPU would be better but are you not aware that SDRAM 512 RAM 133 buss speed is very inexpensive for the DA - and can be bought for between $10.00 and $15.00 a stick? Try the LEM list.

To: "G-Group" <[email protected]> Date: Tuesday, March 15, 2011, 10:18 PM Hi, I am an amateur photographer. I use my Mac for photo editing with Gimp and iPhoto 08 as well as for basic computer use like word processing, surfing, listening to music and watching movies I have a Power Mac Digital Audio 733mhz with 512 MB of RAM and I have just had the opportunity to purchase a 1.0Ghz Emac all in one. I am just wondering which computer would be more effective for my needs. The clock speed of my DA is lower but it also has more onchip cache memory so I am wondering if the higher clock speed on the Emac will actually translate into improved performance. Another appealing pro for the Emac would be for space. my office is kind of small so being able to fit the whole computer on my desk is appealing. After all the Emac is about the same size as my G3 Studio display CRT that I have the DA hooked up to. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
