I was about to say that "-mtune" was a deprecated synonym for
"-mcpu", but just before posting I checked, and found to my
surprise that the opposite is true.  In other words, "-mcpu=G5"
and "-mtune=G5" should have exactly the same effect, but it
is probably better to get used to using "-mtune".

I don't use "-fast", because it enforces "-O3", which is slower
than "-O2" for my program (as well as most other programs I
have tried).
