After reading a positive user review at Newegg from a G5 owner for this 2x512 kit from Corsair, I took a roll of the dice and purchased two.

Just snapped them into my G5, ran a Q3 timedemo and Xbench and they appear to be fine, although the extended hardware test from the oem CD has yet to be done.

Awesome price at $80 a kit, I bought them on sale for $77 a kit with $1.98 Fedex Express Saver shipping.

Imagine: $155 for two Gigabytes of ram shipped
