| 128mb DIMM's in a 5500? |

Hi!
Does anyone know if a PowerMac 5500 would take 128mb modules?
Would be cool to bump it to 256mb.
According to this site, max RAM is 256mb, but I can't seem to find more info anywhere.

I think that’s a misprint. The link at the bottom of the Gazelle section takes you to another part of their site where they say 128mb.
The only way I know to get more than 128mb on a 5500 is to fill in the empty RAM area on the bottom of the motherboard. That’ll take you to 136mb total.

If the 5500 is like the 6400, then 64 meg DIMMs is all you can use. I've tried many kinds of 128 meg DIMMs in a 6400, with no luck.

Alright. Then 128mb in total it is 🙂
It’s my 7.6.1 machine anyway and 128mb is plenty for that.
