It appears to be the correct ram chips. I can't say that the ram is good/bad.

Good luck.

I bought this:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kingston-4G...EW-/290823608167?ssPageName=ADME:L:OU:US:3160

$29.xx for 8gb of ram. Looks like they sold all 18 sticks they had.

It literally got here an hour ago and I just booted up and put my Poly against the big iMac with with 8gb ram and it's unbelievable that it hangs with it on the big adobe programs. That Kingston ram in the poly that I just got is going against the Apple ram in the iMac and I think you can see how well it works. That's a 2.4 Core 2 against a 2.8 Quad Core i5 and they are less than a second apart.

Now both booting 10.6.8, the Poly kills it.

Yeah, that RAM will be fine - Maybe a tad slower than the 1333MHz (or whatever it is) MacBook RAM, but it shouldn't be much slower

That is the factory installed ram and it's the proper ram.
