Hello everybody, I'm about to upgrade my MacBook Pro mid 2012 A1278 and it has now(before the upgrade) two sticks of 2GB of memory(4GB total). I'm willing to replace one of these 2GB sticks with a 8GB stick and leave the other 2GB on its place (10GB total). Is this a problem for my mac? Some...

Hello, I have a mid 2010 MacBook unibody white 13" with Intel 2,4 GHz Core d2 Duo and I wish to upgrade its performances. I presently have 2GB 1067 MHz DDR3 memory and would like to upgrade it to either 8 GB (2x4GB) or even maybe 16GB (2x8GB). I am not sure about the 16GB being installed, will...

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...

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...

Hi everyone, I have a Mid-2009 15" Macbook Pro with the 2.66GHz Core 2 Duo. I know, it's a joke in 2018, but I need some advise. I need a new Windows laptop, but I'm on a budget. I'm thinking about installing Windows 10 on the Macbook and using that. However, I do want to install a SSD and 8GB...

Is this the correct forum to ask about installing an SSD on the above or should I post elsewhere?

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...

What just happened? I was on a CNBC page using Safari watching a YouTube video. Safari was the only thing I had open. Only a single tab. Suddenly my brand new 2017 13" MBP (non-touch bar) started heating up. I get this message at the top of the page: "This webpage is using significant memory...

How does iOS do with 2 GB of RAM? Trying to decide if I need to wait for 3+ GB of RAM. I have an iPhone X, plus an aging iPad Mini 2. Normally, I have just used my iPad in bed for web-surfing and watching YouTube. I will say I have in the tens of Safari tabs open at once, and I probably...

Hi. First post so don't beat me up too much. My mid 2010 5.1, 4 core running 10.11 El Capitan has developed a constantly flashing power light. It won't boot. Fires up with fans & drives kicking in, but after a few seconds the power light flashes & that's your lot. I'm sure this has been...

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...

Read through the forums and still finding myself unsure on the question of best quality vs. performance (rather than ideal configuration). To preface this: I've been using an iMac 2015 setup, then here is the "home office" computer it is replacing, brace yourself: MacBook Pro (15-inch, Early...

tell me how the three memory mode works three-channel? only with 6 slats memory or 3 also works? (inserted in slots 1,2,3)(do not blame yourself russian, the text is dialed through google translator) since there is no such information in russian at all (

I have a late 2013 iMac - 2.7ghz Core i5, 1tb 5400rpm HDD, 8GB DDR3 1600 Ram. Rather than spending a fortune on a new iMac I am looking to upgrade it and I guess my options are to get 16GB RAM and upgrade the HDD to an SSD. I don't use the Mac for anything particularly intensive but would just...

Hey, I recently bought an 2006 Mac Pro 1.1. I´ve upgraded it to Yosemite, also changed for 8 core Xeon and put GeForce 750 Ti to it. Added an SSD too. But only thing that really bothers me are slow RAMs and that got me thinking, what if I buy RAM board from 3.1 2008 Mac Pro and put it into my...

Hi, I recently received an iMac early 2009 model with Intel Core 2 Duo (2.66 GHz), 4 GB RAM and 320 GB HDD. It's currently running Mountain Lion. So far, what I've only done is: - delete the previous user account file, create a new admin account ; - downloaded (but not installed) El Capitan...

I'm going to buy a 2017 iMac pretty soon, and I'm looking to boost the ram myself. Is there a noticeable difference in the type of RAM you install? I'm torn between: Generic Crucial http://amzn.eu/9c3DXan Corsair Vengeance http://amzn.eu/e8VcEip Are there better alternatives out there...
