I have a question, I have a Power Mac G4 (Digital Audio) 733, and want to buy some memory from ebay, I want to know if High Density memory will work in this machine, I can not seem to find a definative answer on this question please help if you can.

Here is a link to the mem that I am thinking about.

On older machines some HD RAM does not work. I checked the Ebay URL. Not sure if that is really HD or not. He says backward compatible with PC100.

The Digital Audio is sort of like my P3 700 with ASUS CUBX. I found on the PIII that real HD would not even post. The Digital Audio will probably be the same way. His description is confusing to me. One place he says 16 chips which to me would mean 8 per side of the stick. The real HD stuff I have had issues with on older systems had 8 on one side. At that low price you could always give it a try.

Sorry I am not more sure but his description is confusing to me.

Checked and 64x4 are for sure High Density.

I have a Digital Audio and have 3 512Meg PC133 DIMM's. They are NOT HD.

These here should work fine. One person put the top Kingston in an older Dell and it worked fine. Higher priced but should work.

Suggest you look for low density RAM. Try newegg and OWC for compatible RAM. Have been lucky buying RAM on eBay but have seen many disasters also. Better safe than sorry.
