Cheap RAM but works brilliantly March 20, 2008 Calvin 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
When I first saw the page for this RAM, I was little bit wary. 2 GB RAM stick for only $45 (plus S & H)? Luckily, I ordered two for my 13.3" 2.2 GHZ MacBook (Santa Rosa) to max it out at 4 GB. It arrived promptly and my friend installed it for me in like two minutes. It's quite an easy process and it is possible for you to do it yourself. I just wanted to be safe. As soon as I turned on my computer, it recognized and has been speeding ever since. I've had numerous windows on the same desktop and it hasn't even stuttered. So make it worth your while and get 4 GB of RAM for about $100, which is just a fraction of the price Apple sells it at. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!!!!
Excellent product for Windows and Macs!! February 14, 2008 Abhinav Chhabra (Los Angeles, CA, USA) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I have installed one of these 2GB Crucial RAMs on both my 20" Apple iMac Core 2 Duo T7700 (with 256MB ATI 2600XT graphics) giving a total of 3GB RAM and on my HP 14" notebook with an Intel 965 chipset (with a 256MB nVidia mobile 8000 series graphics card) also totaling 3GB of RAM. I also use Windows Vista on the iMac using Apple Bootcamp (separate partition and NOT virtual PC).
Both MAC OS X Tiger and Leopard work really fast on it (way better than 1GB of RAM), Leopard being a little heavier on the memory. As for Windows, Windows XP just explodes on power with this chip and Windows Vista becomes about 2X-3X faster.
Most games for Mac don't require much memory anyways, but Windows games like NFS ProStreet, Gears of War, Crysis and Call of Duty 4 work a lot faster, specially because excess memory is available for graphics use.
Video editing and Photo editing become noticeably quicker, while audio editing doesn't show much appreciable improvement.
In general, multi-tasking becomes a breeze. In fact, there is a lot of excess memory available (even after allotting memory for graphics) to run an Anti-Virus, 2 Messengers, Outlook, Firefox, an HD Movie and Gears Of War paused in the background. I'm not kidding, I've tried it, they were all working smoothly.
Note: It is fully compatibly with Apple iMac!! Apple will tell you that only the original Apple memory, which costs a fortune, will work BUT THEY ARE WRONG! I have been using it for the past approx. 6 months.
WORTH THE MONEY!! Must Buy!! 5 - Stars!
Works with Aluminum 24" iMac February 13, 2008 Electric Boogaloo (Norman, OK USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This RAM works great in my 24" Intel based aluminum Apple iMac. The RAM will work in dual mode even if you have 1-1GB stick in the other slot. There is no slow down in performance and I'm running a total of 3-GB.
