I was wondering if this computer can only use CL3 Memory. The problem might be mixing SYNCH or EEC RAM with non-synch/ non-eec sicks. My G4s always seem to like non-eec RAM better although I do have one Digital Audio with all 3 slots filled with 512 MB EEC sticks that work fine. You can mix CL2 with CL3, the RAM bus will just default to run all at the slowest setting. -- 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.

I was really surprised to see that giant Micron plant outside Boise. As I remember, it's up on the high prairie with nothing but tumbleweed to keep it company. Seemed out-of-place. Definitely caught my attention as something I was not expecting to see in Idaho. -- 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.

RAM Upgrade for Quicksilver
All, I have a Quicksilver it was originally a 733 Mhz one but when I bought it someone had upgraded it to 933Mhz. Its running 1.25 GB RAM. I recently got a deal on the lowendmac swap list for another 512 MB RAM. I inserted it into the 1st RAM Slot and removed the 256 MB Stick that was in it. When I restarted I get 3 beeps and no video. I'm like ok this is supposed to be good RAM. I then placed it in the 3rd Slot and the Macintosh booted as normal but didn't recognize the memory. I have looked around and people talk about CL (CAS Latency) and Low vs High Density Memory so I'm wondering if the RAM is good but just doesn't meet the specs.

I was wondering if this computer can only use CL3 Memory. If it can I wanted to find out if a true Quicksilver Dual 1.0Ghz can run CL2 Memory (if so I'll keep this as I just got one with processor and motherboard and plan on moving over to that.
