As stated before, looking on Google or this List archives will get you plenty of info. I got a G5 2.7 DP recently. It seems having the Delphi Liquid Cooling System (LCS), but no leak so far. Very silent, quite fast, I think it's a very good machine, but you have to be lucky about the LCS. Or, get yourself an air cooled one. Below is part of the msgs I got when talking about this: > Apple had two different LCS's in the G5 PM 2.7 the Delphi (single pump) it was > pretty sure to leak and need to be rebuilt the other LCS was made by Panasonic > (two pumps) that AFAIK never has leaked yet.
