In a Hell predominately of my own making
I was going to up to 3GB (I believe it's been demonstrated that the last round of MB's would recognize most if not all of that), but as cheap as this stuff is getting, I was thinking of just tossing in a 4GB set.

So, anybody attempted that yet on a 2.16? Inquiring minds want to know...
 
you'll be able to access ~3.3GB and you'll get the benefit of having a matched pair.
 
It will address 3.3 GB ish and it will be dual channel memory if you use 4 gb in 2x2GB
 
Is this also the case for the Core 2 Duo 2.16 Ghz MBP? I'm thinking of buying one.
 
I've been thinking of doing this too, what with $80 RAM @ Newegg. However, I already upgraded to 2gb, and I'm not sure I'd see a difference in the extra 1.5 gigs.
 
There were reports of hung-ups (freezing), crashes of programs in Tiger (from someone who put 4 GB in a non-SR MB). Is it also the case with Leopard ? (I have upgraded to 2 GB, but memory is really cheap now)... Do anybody knows ?
 
yes my last book had 4G it was a 2.16 the thing was fast.....I also never had any issues with anything used omni ram......3.3 will show but will be very quick
 
Macbook 2.0 with 4GB installed.

I have a Macbook 2.0 with 2x2GB sticks installed. Here's the screen shot:

I'm keeping a close eye on the stability of the system and will post any updates if there are any crashes.

Otherwise, there's not that much difference compared to the 2x1GB sticks previously installed.
