What sort of ram can I fit into a 2008 mac pro?

[AndreasAhston]

I want to get some more ram for my old mac pro a quad core 3.2Ghz intel from 2008, but I have no idea about which types of ram will work and which wont. How can one tell, I wonder? Is it correct that all the ram chips must be of the same size? Are there other issues I should be aware of before purchasing. And could it be a good idea to buy them on ebay?

You can find specs on all Apple products, including RAM specifications for your model:

• By visiting EveryMac.com: Actual Maximum RAM
• By selecting your model on the Crucial Memory Advisor™ Tool to find RAM information
• By using Mactracker
• By entering your serial number here to find specs for your model. (Be aware that some models can use more RAM than Apple shows. Check EveryMac to verify actual usable RAM.)

I have bought my RAM fro Data Memory Systems since 1986. Great folks to work with:
