ram

Hi there, I'm looking at upgrading my iMac's RAM (27 inch, Late 2012, 8GB). I just checked on Crucial and it is saying I can upgrade it to 16GB, but my iMac has four slots, so why is 32GB not being offered as an option? Any advice, as always, greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi guys, something odd is happening with my MBA and I'm thinking it's a motherboard/logic board thing, or possibly a RAM thing. Some water was spilled on the keyboard and fried something in there. I let it dry out for a while, took it all apart, dried off the components, put it back together...

I have tried searching the forums but can't find a definitive answer to this that directly relates to my model so I thought I would throw it out to you "Ramologists" out there. I have a 2010, 5,1, 8 core 2.4ghx (westmere) Mac pro and it had 14 gigs of ram (6x1gb 2 x 4gb) - I create a lot of...

I have a 2012 Macbook Pro. I just upgraded my RAM to 2 sets of 4GB. Under my activity monitor it shows that physical memory is 4gb. Is this correct? Or can I be that one of the slots is not properly working?

Just installed an extra 16GB of RAM (with existing 6GB) in my Pro 3,1 (Early 2008) and fan now sounds like it is trying to take off! Very noisy when doing some things (Photos, PS) and slightly noisier than before when not doing anything. All RAM is Type: DDR2 FB-DIMM Speed: 800 MHz. Top...

Hi, I searched but the ones I saw, they would get a message saying "your computer has restarted because of a problem". However, I am not getting that message at all.
