ram

We are about to buy new MacBook Airs for our nieces. One is about to enter 10th grade and the other 9th. Wondering to go with 8GB or 16GB of RAM? 128GB or 256GB Storage? As a professional photographer, when I buy a MacBookPro for myself, I always max out the RAM (currently have 32GB and wish...

I am looking to buy a MacBook Pro 13inch touchbar 2019. I will be editing a medium amount of 4K video. 5-10 minute projects. I do not operate more than one monitor at the moment, but will prob upgrade to 2 monitors next year. I also, do some minor programming and photoshop. Would anyone...

I am very much in the market for an 11-inch 256GB iPad Pro but am holding off because of the 4GB ram and the possibility of the next iteration coming as soon as october. (how likely is that actually?) I am especially wondering how the 4GB will fare with the new iPad OS that doubles down on real...

I ordered a set of 3x 16GB RAM modules from OWC and asked in advance explicitly whether it would work in my 2009 Nehalem Mac Pro 4.1 (2x 2.66Ghz), a machine I had ordered directly from Apple the day it came out and never upgraded since. All original, no hacks. OWC said yes. Yet neither all 3...

I have the Mid-2010 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7 17" MacBook Pro with 8GB and I sure would like to have 16GB in it. Has anyone actually tried this under Mojave? I don't want to blow money, as the maximum I see everywhere is 8GB.

I just bought a 2018 Mac Mini, and I'm running an LG Ultrafine 5k display and an LG Ultrafine 4k display. So far the iGPU has been pretty bad at pushing that many pixels, but I'm not 100% sure if it's due to the speed of the iGPU itself or its lack of VRAM. I'm not running very graphics...

I'm looking to buy a new Mac Mini. I'd like 32GB RAM, but £540 seems a ludicrous amount to pay for it, given how much it costs elsewhere. I'm reading that installing RAM in these newer Minis is fiddly. Given that I'm not the most 'handy' of people, I'd rather not risk doing it myself. So this is...

For 27-inch 2017 iMac, the apple support page says Use Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Modules (SO-DIMM) that meet all of these criteria: PC4-2400 (19200) Unbuffered Nonparity 260-pin 2400MHz DDR4 SDRAM I see on a lot of RAM on Amazon, then give the choice of either 2400MHz or 2666MHz. I'm...

I have a late 2014 3.5 i5 27” iMac. We had to upgrade to 16gb from the standard 8gb. The machine runs 10.14.3 After three attempts, we finally received memory that worked. Well, after 2 hours of usage, the computer crashed. There were no normal kernel panic type messages. The computer froze...

I'm not sure where else to post this, so if it needs to be moved please do so. I recently bought a 2017 Macbook Air with an i7 and a 128GB SSD. I wasted no time in buying an adapter and dropping in a 512GB Intel 760p SSD, saving myself a few hundred dollars in the process. The only fly in the...

Hi everybody. I bought the iMac 2019 27" base model with 2x 4GB ram in it. Today I upgraded it with 2x 16 GB 2666 MHz DDR4 Corsair Vengeance. At first the computer didn't boot, but after inserting the new Corsair ram into the slots the original ram was, and placing the original ram in the empty...

As I am planning to upgrade my 21.5 inch iMac late 2012, I did some research and conventionally it is only possible to upgrade to 16 gb with 2 X 8 GB rams. Of cause we know the specs of the ram needed (https://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/1600DDR3I16P/). However, out of curiosity I googled...

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 posted previously thinking it was a ram slot issue. I have swapped around the current ram and all slots work. I just can’t get it to recognize additional ram. When I install it, I get the beeps. What can I do? If specs are needed, it’s a late 2014, 27”, retina, 3.5 i5 quad core, 1tb fusion...

I made 8GB x 4 and made 32GB. One day, I was only 24GB, so I was strange that the 5th slot was still recognized. I cleaned it and tried to swap it with the ram in the other slot, but I do not recognize it ..? Slots 1, 2, 5, 6, I have put in. Is there a way to solve this symptom? - High...

Hi all! So I've got an old 21.5" 2011 iMac that I'm looking to upgrade. My current 2012 15" cMBP is on its way out and I don't trust it'll last for a few projects I'm recording. I'm going to upgrade the hard-drive to an SSD and max the RAM to 32GB, however I was also looking to upgrade the...

Hi! It seems the guys from OWC installed 128 GB RAM on the iMac 2019 which is pretty cool! Does anyone used RAM modules of 32 GB? Apple says it can support up to 64 GB (4x16 RAM), but I don't know the reason why they limited it. I'm planning to upgrade the RAM for a new iMac 2019 (for now 64...

So like everyone already ordered RAM for their upcoming iMac, I also did buy the following one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XRBS4Y5 Apple just updated their spec sheet for RAM swap for 2019 iMac. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201191#27inch2019 which says the compatible version to be...

Hello, I have an early 2011 Macbook Pro (see attached screenshot) that has been acting very slow lately, even after a clean installation of the operating system. I am in no way a Mac expert but did some research online and the 2 easiest ways to fix the issue seems to be: 1. Upgrade the RAM My...

Hi guys. First post on here :) Right so a few weeks ago i decided to upgrade my 10 year old MacBookPro 5,5 (2.53GHZ 4GB 13") Now all I could do really is put in an SSD, upgrade from 10.6 to 10.11 (thats as high as it can take) and give it some new RAM. The RAM is the sticking point, I have...
