Apple G4 PowerMac Models

Within the G4 PowerMac family there are 3 distinct series that each have their own specific architectures. The latest DDR Mirrored Door machines, the earlier Quicksilver, Graphite and Sawtooth series and finally the very early PCI Yikes! models. Our exclusive premium certified HyperVelocity modules deliver the highest possible performance you can get for your G4 PowerMac. Please select your specific model in order to choose the correct memory modules.

Whenever applicable, Mac RAM Direct will spec upgrades in the form of modules capable of faster speeds than originally supplied. Remember, faster RAM is like Premium gasoline where even if your car uses 87 octane Regular, she'll purr like a kitten with the higher octane juice. The same holds true for RAM. Enjoy!
