Hey guys,

I'm looking into getting a 2GB kit for my 24" iMac and of course i was going to go straight to Crucial as i know it will work at at £60 its really a good deal. But i just came across this on ebuyer

http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/98708

Its £49.99 but you get £10 off with google checkout. I'm wondering if this will work with the iMac.. its the same speed etc but i thought i would double check before i take the plunge.

Thanks Guys!!
 
Won't work. These are full-size DIMMS. The iMac requires SO-DIMMS which are primarily intended for notebooks. They are typically more expensive, too.
 
lol thanks! good job i double checked.. im new to the Mac so please forgive my ignorance. :)
 
yep that stylish enclosure comes at a price, the components cost more!

i have 2gig in my 24"er and she flys - until i launch photoshop and my ibook starts to look like a speed demon. :(

cruicial is usually a good bet.

welcome
 
Get it from Other World Computing...www.macsales.com or TransIntl.com

I get all my RAM from them...it's a no brainer and much less expensive...

You can get a 3GB kit (1 2GB and 1 1GB) from transintl for around $165.

Awesome!

Let me know how that goes!

Quick question, will Santa Rosa use DDR2 or DDR3?
 
I was looking at getting extra memory when I get my iMac. I noticed that Transintl.com has the Samsung 2GB stick for $22 less than OWC. Does anyone here know which is better to do business with? If I could save a few bucks, that would be cool. However, unless I'm missing something, I don't see anything on Transintl.com about the warranty behind the memory. I'm assuming it's lifetime?:)
