upgrading ram

[melow71]

I have a:

macbook pro 17"
intel core 2 duo processor
2.33 ghz

When I bought my laptop I was told it was only upgradable to 3 gigs of ram which i later did, but I saw a friend and he told me he upgraded to 6gb of ram is this possible? Will the computer read whatever amount of ram I install or is their a limit?


thanks again guys-

Look here, it is either 3 GB RAM or 6 GB RAM (late 2007 models):

You can find specs on all Apple products, including maximum RAM:

• By visiting EveryMac.com: Actual Maximum RAM
• By using Mactracker
• By entering your serial number here to find specs for your model. (Be aware that some models can use more RAM than Apple shows. Check EveryMac or MacTracker to verify.)
