December 7, 2007, Newsletter Issue #167: "Slower" DIMMS

Tip of the Week

In some G4 AGP Macs, if you install more RAM, the System Profiler will report that the Apple-supplied DIMM is a PC100-322s, while your new RAM is a -222s ... and will further comment that your Apple DIMM is "slower". Donīt be alarmed ... the difference is only 10 nanoseconds (a nanosecond is 1/1,000,000,000th of a second). Not likely to affect your gaming speed.
