Ram Upgrade on the PowerMac G5
25 of May 2025 - Gamerabbit
I got my hands on this PowerMac G5 for free. But it had only 750 Mb of ram. And I want to use all the pro software like Final Cut Pro 7, Logic Pro 9. So After some niche research I found 4 sticks of ram each of 1 Gb.
So I bought the 4 sticks of PC3700 ram. And when arrived I proceded to upgraded the ram from 750 Mb to 4 Gb. I bought it second hand from a french website called leboncoin.fr for 5 euro (after negotiation) without the fees and sending fees (with those it was around 10 euros).
But I keep the 750 Mb of ram because I want to keep the original ram. So I 3D printed a ram holder to keep the original ram.
