The machine purrs like a leopard. Applications run faster, better. 8-New GB from crucial, to replace some older Apple Module DDR. Passing info onto you. Well Worth the [$] per 2 GB. Get about six more years useful operation out of my 2005 G5 (s). Top notch equipment.

I honestly can't say a bad thing about the 2GB upgrade to my mac.

Price was cheap,[...], easy install, mac is fast now!

No problems with installation on a first gen G5, upgrading from 3GB to 5GB, the performance is definitely better now. Can't comment on long term reliability as it has only been a few weeks, but I am planning to buy more to replace the old chips and max out the memory.

Comments about Crucial 2GB kit (1GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple Power Mac G5 (Dual 2.0GHz DDR) System:

I've purchased RAM from a couple other companies in the past, and had to send it back because of failure to work. I've used Crucial the last two times and no failure, just works. I use applications such as Photoshop, Dreamweaver, iMovie, Illustrator, etc... the more RAM I've got the faster these applications run. Right now I've got 4.5GB of RAM in my PowerPC G5. I'm thinking of making it a full 8GB. RAM is so freaking cheap now, I LOVE it! Buy from Crucial, I doubt you'll be disappointed.
