Airforce said:In PCs, the ram will work fine with the other 512. It just clocks down to the lower one and runs at that speed. I don't see why it wouldn't do this in an iMac as long as the pins match up and such.
It's not that they must match. necessarily, but that the PC2700 is too slow for the iMac's memory buss, so it is incompatible from the get-go.shadowmoses said:I think a rule of the thumb with RAM is that they must match, therefore the answer to your question is no,
1. is Mac RAM the same as a type of pc RAM thats available in stores?
2. I have an eMac with Tiger, 512MB RAM and a 1.42 GHz PowerPC G4, can this run Leopard problem free, and if it can what about Boot Camp?
3. If it can't where and how much would it cost to make it fit for the operations I need. (Running many .exe programs such as CS:S[counter-strike:source])
