I'm glad that someone is doing the justice for Quad G5 or any dual core or dual cpu G5 Powermac. I'm a huge fan of these machines. Collected a few so far and have been using it leisurely and find it has plenty of appeals in it.
I saw 8 bit guy's video before I bought the Quad G5. I just can't believe that Quad G5 can be so bad. I was referencing it to my Dual CPU 2.0 G5 at the time with 8GB ram and 6800 Ultra. When I got the Quad G5, I've upgraded the rams to 16GB and also to a Quadro FX 4500. It was running like a dream but I do agrees that Quad G5 is a little louder than the air cool G5. It's not as bad as 8 bit guy claim it to be a space heater. I'm from a tropical country, if I don't think it's that warm then it must be something wrong with 8 bit guy's Quad G5.
The Quad G5 has always been running cool for me. Usually around 38-50 degrees and rarely runs above 50. I hasn't start servicing the pump but I knew I really have to make the time for it.
2 of my air cooled dual cpu G5 has broken down. Quad G5 still going strong.
