Re: G5 Pricing and Specs
Yeah whats up with that. Apple always seem to be behind with graphics cards. PCs always seem to have faster AGP and their graphics cards always seem to have more RAM. I'm not sure if high amounts of video RAM is important to performance but surely the AGP speed makes a difference when it comes to upgrading a card. Ruben Not good either. No PCI-Express slots which means no GeForce6 or Radeon X800 No PCI-Express slots which means still only one decent graphics card per machine. Most top-end video cards come with 256MB's RAM or more these days. Still only one optical drive. What happened to 3Ghz in 12 months Shipping In July? Right just like the XServes were shipping in March. - Matt -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml Guidelines - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.shtml Unsubscribe - mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] WAMUG is powered by Stalker CommuniGatePro
