Its time for some more RAM (1Gb) in my dual 2GHz G5 (the second
version from memory).
I know it needs to be PC 3200 (400MHz) DDR SD-RAM but I notice
several memory suppliers (mainly selling to the PC market) don't
sell it in 'matched pairs'.
a) I thought it HAS to be installed in pairs (of the same size)
b) and it should be matched for timing reasons
is this correct?
Any suggestions or other pointers about RAM v RAM welcome...
Cheers, Antony.
From memory, I believe it is necessary in the G5 Desktop tower
machines, but not strictly necessary in the G5 iMac (although matched
RAM provides much better performance in the iMac).
