Looking for Good RAM for MBP 15" LED.........

[fab5freddy]

i am about to buy 4 GB for RAM for my new MBP 15" LED.
What is a good, but cheap option out there........?

My MBP came with 2 x 1 GB sticks, which are useless now, that i am going to have to throw out...... but what ever....

cheers,

Apple's own website is a good place.

If you want to pay with one of your children.



I suggest you go through an online retailer like Newegg or Crucial

Or Crucial.com (or crucial.com/uk in my case).

I second Crucial. That's where I generally get my RAM. Good service, easy online selector and just all-around a good experience every time I've dealt with them. I definitely wouldn't suggest Apple's page, though - they charge app. 300% what RAM will cost you anywhere else. It's crazy.

I don't think high-quality ram is going to matter that much on a notebook. Its not like a desktop system where you're going to be able to overclock and make use of the "higher quality."

Frys $139.99 after rebate

Or you could buy two sticks from Apple for the price of a new Macbook LOL

It depends a lot on where you are located. I don't think any of the usual mail order sources deliver to Heaven or to Hell.

But you could try Dell, rumor has it a lot of their customers are in one of those places.

I'm looking to see if there are any cheaper sources of 4Gb for my new MacBook Pro in the UK other than Crucial before I contemplate making an order. Any suggestions? Would the Geil Mac Series ram that's out of stock at Microdirect be any good?

Well I know it's still crucial, but overclockers.co.uk, has a 2x2gb kit for #144+vat+delivery.

I will be buying a 15" MBP once Lepoard has been launched. This is a great price for 4gb memory. You could probably sell the old 2gb kit off and get more money back.
