Apple Mac G5 1.8gHz computer

The Apple Power Macintosh G5/1.8,is the first of the Mac series to use the 64-bit PowerPC 970 (G5) processor, and is arguably the first "desktop" computer to use 64-bit processors. In addition to higher clock speeds, the PowerPC 970 (G5) has a "new execution core that features massively parallel computation for an unprecedented 215 in-flight instructions", and the Power Macintosh G5 series uses a new high speed system architecture as well. This combination results in major speed gains compared to earlier Apple systems.

 

The Power Macintosh G5/1.6 features a 1.6 GHz PowerPC 970 (G5) processor with an optimized AltiVec "Velocity Engine" vector processing unit, and 512k level 2 on-chip cache, and shipped configured with 256 MB of PC2700 DDR SDRAM, an 80.0 GB (7200 RPM) Serial ATA hard drive, a 4X/8X/16X/10X/32X SuperDrive (DVD-R/CD-RW), and a NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra (AGP 8X Pro) video card with 64 MB of DDR SDRAM. In addition to the standard compliment of ports, including FireWire "800", ADC, DVI, and support for AirPort Extreme (802.11g) and Bluetooth 1.1, the Power Macintosh G5 series is the first Mac line to provide support for USB 2.0, Optical digital audio in/out (SPIDF), and PCI-X slots for additional expansion options (on the PM G5/1.8 and PM G5 2.0 DP, but not this model). On first glance, the case looks similar to the case introduced with the second Power Macintosh G3 series crossed with a postmodern cheese grater, but it is actually a completely different design.

The "anodized aluminum alloy" Power Macintosh G5 case is divided into four different thermal zones with nine computer-controlled fans for optimum cooling, and features a removable side panel for easy access to internal components.
