[QUOTE="Kokopelli, post: 192052"] Yes, ECC RAM is Error Correcting and <something> RAM. It is mostly used in servers. ECC RAM will be a little slower than the equivalent Non ECC RAM. More importantly, the two can not be mixed and not all machines can use ECC RAM. If a machine can use ECC RAM it can almost always use NON ECC. Off the top of my head I do not know what type RAM the new G5s use but it is very likely Non ECC. EDIT: Too slow. ;) [/QUOTE]
