Hello there everyone,

I'm thinking to upgrade my RAM on my iMac 27" 2017 model.
I use graphic applications a lot (Figma, Photoshop, Illustrator) and I have easily 20 tabs opened at least all the time.
I currently have 16GB (2x8) and I feel like my iMac is very very slow.

I think it's time to upgrade and I consider removing the RAM I have and getting 64gb (4x16) of the following model:


Is this going to fit my iMac?
I following the guidelines from Apple and this memory does answer some of the requirements, but some technical info is missing.
I want to make sure that this is going to work.
Would appreciate your consultant before I purchase.

Thanks!
Dor

I *think* that looks OK, but have not tried it personally.

Here is another option, which assures it is compatible with 2017 iMac, has lifetime warranty and has free returns (assuming you are in U.S.), and I have had good success with Timetec:

or Crucial, which costs more but some say has best reputation:

or similarly OWC:
