I have a Dual 2.5 Ghz G5 PowerMac I bought in September 2004 and was wondering if I can use it with MorphOS in the future? It needs repair and I was just going to get rid of it but if MorphOS will support it maybe I'll get it fixed.

Does anyone know what the last (best/most powerful) Power Mac G5 was that did NOT have liquid cooling?  I would like to start shopping prices and I prefer an Air Cooled unit I think.  Cool News on MorphOS for g5!   Thanks for any advice.


Your right to want the Air Cooled one, I think the liquid cooling killed my PowerMac G5.

:(

The only one with Liquid Cooling is the Early 2005 Dual 2.7 GHz. All the other ones are Large Heat Sync with Fan Arrays.

I love the design of the G5, it's some of the Jony Ive's best work. I have a Dual 1.8 Ghz collecting dust (waiting for Morhos), and a Quad 2.5 GHz running Kubuntu 12.04.

Nope, mine also has Liquid Cooling and it's a 2004 2.5 Ghz Dual G5. Jony Ive is a great designer, very true. What is Morhos?
