Replacement Instructions
Follow the instructions in this sheet carefully. Failure to follow these instructions could
damage your equipment and void its warranty.
Online instructions are available at http://www.info.apple.com/installparts/.
Note: These instructions apply to different versions of the Power Mac G5. While some
models may look slightly different from the one shown in the illustrations, the steps for all
models are the same.
AGP and PCI Cards
The Power Mac G5 computer has four expansion card slots, three of which accommodate
Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) cards and one that accepts an advanced
graphics port (AGP) video card
(Figure 1) . AGP cards and PCI cards have different
connectors, so you cannot insert a PCI card into the AGP slot.
Note: Maximum power consumption for all four expansion slots (the three PCI expansion
cards and the AGP card) should not exceed 90 watts (W).
