Still not sure how that Sawtooth is able to read ECC ram. I've never had any G4 read or even boot with ECC ram.
 
Come guys, cool it down. Chris might have got up on the wrong side of the bed. Lol.
Maybe I take it all too serious and wasn't able to get the humour between the lines.

Let me make a joke:

Or he is one of those Americans that live in Germany and say how smug Germans are and the next moment he calls the German Police, because a car is parking in the street.
Me: "why do you even bother, it isn't blocking the way?" He would say: "it is not allowed", me: "yes, but they got other things to do, like get rapists and thieves to prison", he: "but I payed socialist taxes, so I want to get good value for my investment."

Now that was off topic from me!

PS: Nameci, maybe you can explain what is bothering him here https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1496149/ (He isn't even able to speak German, living in Germany and being married to a German, and makes fun of my English. Though I have to admit, that I might have gotten him totally wrong and all is cool an he is still friendly kidding)

I think Chris is not German living in Germany. He might be living inside a base. Who knows? Just my wild guess. Chris has sense of humor I am sure of that.

I haven't made fun of your English ever, nor will I.

I've also never said Germans are smug, exact yes smug no..

In that thread I was picking on you for going to bon prix, it was intended to be good natured nothing more.

==============

If something I say seems to not make sense or is crass it's intended to be funny..

OK, Then, it's ok, I was just not sure how you mean it. Will you accept an excuse from me? It seems it was just too late after midnight for me to get the humour in your last post in the other thread, where it said "I understand I mad and you false it deutsche" (thought that was supposed to look like my English). In the future I will know, that your posts are not ill-intended. Are we fine, now?:( *and I do not mean that sarcastic, really*

(Btw. from earlier posts, I actually thought you were relaxed and have humour, but I got unsure, because you got pi**ed about the G4 ECC RAM thing so quick and that converted to looking through another lense, wwhen reading your last post in the other thread).

I didn't say, you said Germans were smug. It was an assumption for the purpose of the joke to work.

I wasn't angry at all just tired...

I try to relaxed but it's not my nature so I try to compensate by being sarcastic..

I've lived here for 9 years now that the longest I've lived any one place in my adult life, I'll likely only go back to the states if forced. It would be a hard life if I didn't like you guys being that I'm the minority..

In the end I'm a little hard to deal with but I try not to be if I'm being an a$$ just tell me I probably don't realize it.

I'm sorry I offended you, I'll try not to in the future.

OK :)
I in return I will try to first see the humour and calm down myself, before thinking it is intended to be offensive. Do not censor yourself or your humour, when dealing with me. That might be a loss. I like your humour, when I understand it ;)
 
So is the conclusion that any standard DDR2 works, not necessarily 533?
I am finally getting G5 Quad, and it has 4GB on board. Need to buy additional memory now.

Belated update: got Hynix DDR2 RAM, works without issues. Got 16 GB now and 4 GB left for backup.
