PC3200 in sawtooth G4

[technocoy]

i have come across a stick of pc3200 ram that is 1GB and i have a friend who is in need of ram pretty badly and is broke. i realize that his ram is only 100mhz but would this work at all in his 450mhz G4?

thanks for any help.

Nope.. wont fit.

you need PC133 SDRAM

No. PC3200 is DDR RAM, it has a different connection. SDRAM has 2 notches in the bottom ( that's what the Sawtooth takes). DDR RAM has one notch in the bottom, so it won't even fit in the Sawtooth.

EDIT: Doh! Beaten to it.
