[QUOTE="JayLenochiniMac, post: 397558, member: 31283"] I got the following off other forums: "The iMac G5 does not do Dual Channel access, it does a junior version called 128-bit access. To achieve this, Apple says that the RAM modules must be the same size, speed and 'composition' - but they din't define that very well." "The people at Crucial tell me that since the new(iSight) iMac has one chip soldered to the motherboard, it's not a dual channel. As a result, the matching of memory sizes will not come into play on the new one." Can anybody confirm this? [/QUOTE]
