Sorry for my misunderstanding.
If I may ask: what's the problem with the Early 2005 2.3 GHz G5?
Unfortunately, this narrows it down very much.
It leaves Bob with only this model:
PowerMac7,3 Mid-2004 Dual-2.0 GHz
Because all others have issues.
Bob, one more thing: if you accept PCI instead of PCI-X, keep in mind that the
PCI models only have 4 memory banks (dual-channel), whereas the PCI-X models
have eight (dual-channel). This may be favourable if you have a lot of DDR
DIMMs laying around, so you are able to use them (in pairs: dual-channel).
