It appears likely that it's a Late 2005 since this was the only
model of 2.0 GHz G5 to have 8 RAM slots. I believe this means
you've got a single CPU with dual core. To be certain, there should
be a grey label inside below the lower edge of the clear plastic
cover along the metal of the case. This should have the serial # in
VERY TINY print. You can type that serial # into this website to
get EXACT information on your Mac:

thanks for teh power suply help
Finding a replacement power supply might cost more than a whole
used G5?
so it seems, on the other hand, if $50-100 keeps this piece of
aluminum working hard and out of a trash heap, that's a Win right?
