    Vintage Macbook Pro 3,1: most suitable RAM?

    I'm looking for a single 4GB stick of PC5300 667 for my 10 year old Macbook Pro (non unibody) for 6GB total.

    RAM Compatibility for iMac 2015 5K

    Can I install the default 8gb ram that comes with the 2017 model, on a 2015 iMac? I have a 2015 model and a friend bought the 2017 but she put new ram and she won't use the 8gb that came with it. How can I make sure that they will be compatible with the ones I have on my 2015 model?

    Where to sell my stock Mac Pro 5,1 parts

    Hey there, I know ebay and craigslist is always an option. But I was wondering if anyone knew of a place that buys used stock Mac Pro parts. I'd like to sell my stock 2.8 4-core CPU, and 4gb and 1gb RAM, for what little they are worth, and was hoping there was somewhere easier than online...

    The Current Confusing Case of My iMac

    This is my first post to MacRumors, and I wanted to see if I could pick some brains here to see if anyone else either had this issue or knows what is causing this issue. A word on me and this post: I tend to write a lot; I don't want to leave out details when I am attempting to dissect and/or...

    Optimum sample streaming config for 5,1 Mac Pro

    I'm getting a 2nd 3.46GHz 12-core 5,1 Mac Pro specifically for audio sample streaming via VEP6. I'll probably go the DVD Bay route for the OS SSD to maximise available PCI bandwidth and I'll probably put a GTX 680 in slot 1. That leaves slots 2,3 & 4 for PCI SSD cards. The aim is to optimise the...

    iMac 5K Late 2015 RAM Question

    So I have this Late 2015 iMac 5K that I bought gently used and it came with the stock 8GB of PC3L-14900S 1867Mhz Micron RAM. The guy I bought it from also included a 16GB (2x8GB) kit of extra RAM with it, but he claimed it caused issues so he didn't have it installed. I checked the specs and...

    iMac default 16 GB config from Apple

    this is a fairly simple question for anyone who had purchased the 16 Gb iMac 27 inch: does the default machine come with 2 x 8GB sticks, or 4 x 4GB dimms? I cant find an answer anywhere. I wanna know because the latter config would result in 8 GB less ram if i purchased my own additional 32 GB...

    RAM upgrades 8GB and 2GB

    Hey all. Probably a bit of a dumb question. But I am having to upgrade the RAM in my 2009 8-Core Mac Pro. It came with 4 2GB memory sticks. I have a total of 8 slots. I recently purchased two 8GB sticks. So I was wondering if I could install the 2x8GB and 4×2GB to equal 24GB. Or do they all...
