Basics Overview - 1 Overview The Power Macintosh 9500 Series computers are based on the PowerPC 604 microprocessor and support the industry-standard PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) bus specification. These computers are the most flexible, expandable, and highest-performance systems from Apple to date. The microprocessor for the Power Macintosh 9500 Series computers is on separate plug-in card, which allows for easy upgrades. The Power Macintosh 9500 family includes five vers

Basics Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) - 7 Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) The Power Macintosh 9500 Series computers offer a Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) expansion bus. Because the PCI bus is an industry standard, most existing PCI 2.0-compliant cards (with the addition of a Mac OS- specific software driver) will work in the Power Macintosh 9500 Series computers. PCI offers significantly higher performance than the NuBus architecture used in previous Macint

Basics Dual In-Line Memory Modules (DIMMs) - 8 Dual In-Line Memory Modules (DIMMs) The Power Macintosh 9500 Series computers use DRAM Dual In-Line Memory Modules (DIMMs) instead of DRAM SIMMs. Whereas SIMMs have 72 pins, DIMMs have 168 pins. The extra pins provide a 64-bit data path, compared to a 32-bit data path for SIMMs. In addition, DIMMs do not have to be installed in pairs like the SIMMs on earlier Macintosh models. (However, to take advantage of memory interleaving, the D
