Find the sleek Quicksilver enclosure of the Power Mac G5 that akes data and spins it around so fast you have to be careful not to get dizzy. It's configured with a 1.6GHz G5 processor, a 512KB on-chip, full-speed L2 cache, an 80GB 7200rpm Serial ATA hard drive and 768MB PC2700 DDR SDRAM (256MB standard plus our 512MB upgrade, expandable to 4GB).

With two double-precision floating-point units, advanced branch prediction logic and support for symmetric multiprocessing, the PowerPC G5 processor builds on previous PowerPC designs, combining an optimized Velocity Engine with a superscalar, super-pipelined execution core that can execute more than 200 simultaneous in-flight instructions. This high-bandwidth core has over 12 discrete functional units that process massive amounts of instructions in parallel. The Power Mac also features three open PCI slots, a built-in 56K V.92 modem, 10/100/1000BaseT Ethernet connectivity, an AirPort Extreme slot for optional wireless networking, three USB 2.0 ports, one FireWire 800 port and two FireWire 400 ports. The SuperDrive includes both CD-RW and DVD-R functions; it writes CD-Rs at 16X, rewrites CD-RWs at 10X, reads CD-ROMs at 32X, reads DVD-ROMs at 8X and records DVD-Rs at 4X (max. speeds), so you can compile audio CDs and create movies. Video is provided by the NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra with 64MB DDR SDRAM and support for simultaneous ADC and DVI displays and a VGA adapter, with resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 (digital) and 1600 x 1200 (analog) on compatible displays. Plug in optional speakers to the sound card or USB ports and you have a complete multimedia machine. An Apple Pro Keyboard and Apple Pro Mouse are included.
