PowerMac G5 Update?
ThinkSecret provides some more details on PowerMac G5 Updates.
According to the rumor site, the new machines should arrive in dual 2.5GHz, 2GHz and 1.8GHz models as well as an entry level single processor 1.8GHz model. ATI 9600 XT and NVidia GeForce FX 5200 Ultra graphics cards are to be offered.
ThinkSecret had warned that the bumps could be pushed back later this week. Indeed, one MacRumors source has indicated that the update may have been pushed back just one day at the last minute.
The release day apparently remains a moving target.

that's a pretty good high-end boost. But, oh!, are people going to be mad about only getting to 2.5.
Additional question - would the existence of a single 1.8 preclude the G5 imac? I mean, I think they'd put single G5's in imacs and dualies in Powers...

Ok, here comes the obligatory but all the rumor sites originally said 2.6GHz. That's right. Start whining that you now need that 100MHz.

Wait a minute - why would those be considered updates?? WE ALREADY HAVE DUAL 2.0 AND 1.8GHZ POWERMACS.
2.2
2.4
2.6
That's what makes sense.

That seems like a REALLY weird update. As far as it looks, the processors stay exactly as we have already seen them, except for adding a way faster high end 2.5GHz. You would really think that after 12 months, the whole line would get a shuffle around. I thought 2GHz would be the low end, even a single, but to keep the 1.8 as the low end after 12 months is crazy. Although I don't doubt the sources, I would be suprised with this update.
