Any experience using OWC 32GB kit on 2011 iMacs?

[Buffsteria]

OWC is selling a 32GB memory kit for current iMacs. My husband has 16GB on his and we've been thinking of ordering the kit. Any experiences from anyone here? I'm delighted that we could upgrade to 32GB!! But I hear it's not officially supported...

Officially supported or not, I imagine if OWC is doing it, it works!

I don't think there would be a problem, as mentioned earlier, if OWC is selling it would almost certainly work. My only question to you is, what on Earth are you doing with your iMac that 16GB isn't enough? Heck I "only" have 12GB and have zero page outs, even running multiple apps as well as running Windows 7 under Parallels. I still have plenty of memory left. So, I'm just curious what you are using your iMac for that 16GB doesn't cut it? Obviously some people do need 32GB or else OWN wouldn't sell it, but I'm just curious.

3rd party software doesn't come into the equation. If OWC sell it then you can assume it is 100% safe
