Adding RAM to the PowerMac G4
My Mac knowledge really stops at the PPC G5, so I don't know much about the G4t & a small prodution I am working for said "Hey, can we run Final Cut Pro 2 on here?"
So first, I think that I have a good enough video card - the ATY, RV250 (ATI Radeon 9000 Pro video card.)
Secondly, the RAM, I have no idea about the RAM this can take, or what type. Here's the info I have on it:
DIMM3/J20:
Size: Empty
Type: Empty
Speed: Empty
DIMM2/J23:
Size: 512 MB
Type: DDR SDRAM
Speed: PC2600U-25330
DIMM1/J22:
Size: 512 MB
Type: DDR SDRAM
Speed: PC2600U-25330
DIMM0/J21:
Size: 256 MB
Type: DDR SDRAM
Speed: PC2600U-25330
I'd assume I could get up to 2GB at least?
Also here's my machiene info:
Hardware Overview:

Lastly, since this Mac is still at 10.3.9, does anyone know if I can upgrade to 10.4? or 10.5? (if that would work...)
I'd appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.
