Hello my iMac friends,
At the risk of adding yet another thread about memory upgrades, I wanted to ask for a specific recommendation. I've found looking through the forums a little that each case seems to be unique and memory changes rapidly, making older posts less helpful.
Hardware: I have a 27" Quad core i5 iMac, bought in late July/early August of 2010. I've been doing a little more heavy lifting of late (Photoshop, iMovie) and it's slow on the rendering and redrawing, and I'd like to bump the RAM to speed things up. Before I moved to Macs 5 years ago, I knew enough about PCs to upgrade, but I haven't touched this sort of thing since then, so I'm a little concerned at getting the right components.
My question: Could some kind soul please point me to exactly the sort of RAM they'd buy in my place (bearing in mind I'd need to have it delivered to Ontario, Canada) to punch this machine to either 8 or 16 GB RAM?
My thanks in advance...
