I've got an iMac G5 (isight) which I bought in Dec 05. I would like to upgrade another 1GB of RAM. The thing is that I can't tell the difference btw PC4200 and PC2-4200 533mhz RAM.


Need some help here. Thanx!!

iMac G5 (iSight) comes with a 512 MB DDR2 SDRAM module built into the logic board that can't be removed or replaced. It also has one additional RAM slot that can support up to 2 GB of memory (you can install a 512 MB, 1 GB, or 2 GB module in this slot). You must use a memory module (DIMM) that meets these criteria:

PC2-4200
unbuffered
nonparity
240-pin
533 MHz
DDR2 SDRAM
DIMMs that have any of the following features are not supported in the iMac G5 (iSight):

registered or buffered
PLLs
ECC
parity
EDO RAM
