Okay, what kind of G5 do you specifically have? What processor speed and number of processors is a start. I don't think anybody here wants to give bad information but a bit more from you is going to help us all out quite a bit.

No worries. Managed to work out from the crucial site it was ddr2. Dirt cheap on there too.

And the memory prices keep on dropping for sure. I've installed some G.Skill sticks in mine and it's pretty darn sweet that it's running me $60 for 2 gigs currently. I noticed a nice jump in performance going from 1GB to 6 GB so hopefully you'll be happy with the upgrade.
