So, i have had the iMac G5 for a couple of years. I never got around to upgrading the RAM. I went into Circuit City today to see what they had left. I saw 2GB DDR2 5300 for $20. i was like sweeeeeet. so i just installed it and it is wicked fast now with a total of 2.5GB RAM!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for listening.

From the research I just did at everymac.com, no iMac G5 used PC 5300 ram!

Sweeeeeet = IQ of 70

while you are technically correct, it still works.

Thanks for clearing that up. I wasn't sure if maybe there was a "typo" of some sort in the original post.
