Hi guys! I have Powermac G5 Dual 2.0 Late 2005 (PCIe, DDR2). This PPC can work up to 16GB ECC or non-ECC DDR2 RAM. But i want to know, is it can work with 4Gb modules or there is a limit for 2Gb in one ram module? Cannot find information about that, may be somebody tried to install 4Gb modules...

This might be a really dumb question but will it make a big difference if I add 16gb (8gb x 2) to the empty two slots on my iMac or would it be just as fast adding 8gb (4gb x 2)? I hear different things about RAM and I have heard in some situations if you have different size RAM there is not a...

I know you can technically upgrade the RAM yourself in the 2018 mini but having watch the videos I don’t feel very confident in my ability. I’m based in the UK and I’m wondering if you can go into an Apple Store or Authorised Service place and they will do it? Would you be able able to provide...

I am in England near Norwich. Can anybody recommend a company that will upgrade the memory from 8 gig to 32 gig in my above machine? Thanks

According to the research I have done one can't combine single and dual rank ram. I am in the process of purchasing an iMac 27 inch late 2017 that comes with 8G Ram. I will be purchasing more RAM and would like to have it ready to install when I get my new machine. I have found what I want and...

Just got new 2013 mac pro(6,1),and i plan to upgrade ram and ssd, should i need to keep apple original ssd(256gb) and ram(8x8=32gb) for apple care(3 years warranty) in future?

Greetings, My apologies if this has been answered elsewhere my search didn't turn up what I was looking for. I've inherited this iMac and I noticed that it's running 12 GB of RAM, 2-4GB slots, & 2-2GB slots for a total of 12 GB. I've searched for information on the max amount of RAM and have...

I am having a weird issue after I updated the CPU's on my Mac 1,1 to the quad core from the dual cores. If dimm 1 on the lower RAM board is occupied the system does not boot. The system turns on and the fans turn on as normal however there is no video out put and no chime, the white front LED is...

Ihave a Mac Pro 5.1, 12-core 3.46 Westmere. I just bought 128gb of 1333 ddr3 ram for it, but it shows as being 800mhz only. I contacted the seller of the ram. Read what he said below. Is this correct and is there a way I can bring it up to 1333mhz? I took out half and it still says 800. I took...

Hello, New to the forums and to Macs in general. I have a question that I'm hoping someone can help clear up for me. I have a 2009 Mac pro that I'm in the process of upgrading to a dual CPU 5680. I ordered all the parts but and the Ram arrived first. 8 sticks of 8gb 1333 ECC ram (Samsung). I'm...

I am working on a macbook pro for a client. I swapped out the existing ram 4gb to the max 16gb and swapped out the existing hd 500gb with a sandisk ssd 1 TB (/edit) macbook pro A1278, Mid-2012 (/edit off) we did a full time machine backup before doing the above upgrades. the problem is that...

To speed up my photo editing on Lightroom, I was advised to change my fusion drive to SSD as opposed to upgrading my RAM. Is this the best option? And if so, can somebody recommend a suitable SSD? I've got an iMac 27 inch (late 2013) 3.5 GHz Intel Core i7 Memory 8GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Storage -...

Hey guys! I'm choosing a new MacBook and persist in a quiet a confusion after several days of reading and thinking. :) I choose between 2018 rMBA and 2018 13' tbMBP. And specific configurations. The cornerstone of Mac's resources use is that I'm unfortunately forced to use a single (damn!)...

Does anyone know how much an AASP would charge? I want to buy a Mac Mini as my first Mac ever. I'm considering the i5, 16GB, 256GB version for photo editing. But since the RAM is upgradeable, I want to save some money for now and settle for the 8gb version and upgrade later. I know I can upgrade...

I recently bought a refurbished Mac Pro 6,1, with 32GB of ram in all 4 slots. After a month, one of my DIMMs is not being detected, leaving me with only 24GB. Can anyone tell me what approach I should take to troubleshoot this? I am new to Macs (but highly technical) and I am...

Hi, how should I run my MacBook pro smoothly? I used to have Mid 2011 Macbook pro, lately, that Mac got very slow when I work on Lightroom (especially when was using the adjustment brushes). So I just updated it to Macbook Pro 2018, I see it fast but not what I expected. I don't understand why...

I have a question regarding these two. If I understand correctly Apple put in a bigger battery in the 2018 15" to handle DDR4 RAM. So would 32GB use less or more power vs going with 16GB and potentially maxing it out and using swap memory? I have a choice between two refurb models, 16GB/560X...
