I have recently installed an additional 1GB RAM into Intel iMac bringing the total to 2GB and all I can say is WOW!

This is how OSX was truly supposed to run.

I managed to get Kingston RAM (brand new) on eBay for £71 inc. delivery.

If you can afford it, I would highly recommend going for 2GB.

Hi nsheikh,

Can you post a link to the eBay listing for that RAM?
Sounds like an excellent deal. I'm thinking about increasing the RAM in my iMac too.

Cheers Amigo.
 
I have 512MB. Good fun. :rolleyes:
My mom says instead of upgrading the RAM I should run less programs. Even though my iMac stutters with Word, Firefox, and aMSN open.
 
Not to be disrespectful at all to your mum, but,,, I hope you can safely and slowly and intelligently educate her that she is mistaken - all of these software applications require a piece of the pie to run, and RAM is the filling that makes it all so tasty; without that filling you will get crusty, waiting and waiting... ;)
 
Is there a big difference between
the one u got and a
GB Micro 1GB DDR2 SODIMM PC5300 667MHz

The macs have a pc2-5300 and not sure what the difference is.
