G5 owners with hardware issues, is your machine a CTO or stock?

have a personal theory on these issues people are having.

Maybe the CTO G5s are more quirky due to possible human errors during the custom assembly process.

Maybe due to the pressure on Apple to release the machines, workers are more sloppy at adding RAM, Video Cards and HDs resulting in poorly put together CTO machines.

While stock machine have the advantage of careful consumer hands when adding memory. Stock machines are handled more carefully due to the vested (2k-3k$) interest of the buyer.

I think everyone has that chirping sound.

"Hello, what have we here?
