Would this chart also be applicable for a PPC G5?
I have 4.5 Gigs of RAM, that I'm not sure is setup correctly. 4 x 1GB, 2 x 512 MB.

Also when mixing different brands of RAM, is it better to have all of the same brand on one riser, or have them mirrored?

For the G5 the concern is just in having matched pairs in the corresponding slots. The MP is more complicated.

Brand is irrelevant, only capacity matters.
