It's http://www.apple.com/powermac/specs.html

I can't see anything about 5V PCI compatibility in that
page. But in the preliminary specs
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Hardware/Developer_Notes/Macintosh_CPUs-G5/PowerMacG5/PowerMacG5.pdf>
at pages 27 and 73:

"The connectors to the PCI or PCI-X slots are 3.3V keyed [...]
5V keyed or signalling cards do not work in the Power Mac G5 computer".
