Ok need some help please was going to upgrade my Ram it has the stock original 8GB of Apple Ram. Was about to get 16GB (2X8 GB) of RAM from Crucial to fill the other two available slots so the machine has 24GB. I have seen Ram on sale on Amazon which is about half the price of Crucial. Would it be worth buying or should I pay more than double the price for Crucial. Crucial coming out at £98.00 and the cheaper one is £39.00

One other thing I have been doing is buying faster than spec RAM if it is cheaper. 1600 Mhz was cheaper than 1333 and I bought the 1600 for both the 2014 and 2010. I have mixed 1333 and 1600 in the 2010.
