[QUOTE="pixandpug, post: 392210, member: 31107"] I have a first release G5 1.6Mhz Power Mac that is in dire need of some more RAM. It currently has 768Mhz of PC2700 333Mhz DDR-SDRAM. I bought some cheap ram of the same speed the other day which my machine certainly didn't like. It was crashing every hour or so. The shop I bought it from won't refund me but will change it for something else. The problem is they don't have any other RAM of that speed etc. I noticed they have Crucial PC3200 400mhz DDR-SDRAM which is just a fraction more expensive. Can I use this RAM in my machine? I have read in places that this is possible. I don't care if it doesn't run at the higher speed - I just want to know if it is compatible. Thanks for your help! [/QUOTE]
