where is MacSale?

I'm not sure what chips, but I'm quite certain its just OWC rebranded RAM.

As for RAM, the 6GB combo is ridiculously priced now. Unless you absolutely need that extra 2GB, stick with 4GB.

http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Appl...ro/Upgrade/DDR3

According to the manual, MBP13 can address up to 8GB of RAM with 4GB modules on each slot. The MBP13 has 2 physical slots. But since 4GB modules does not exist at the moment (at least in major stores), we're pretty much capped at 4GB total (2GB modules on each slot). If you're in KL, 2GB modules are relatively easy to purchase at LowYat Plaza.

I would generally advise people to keep their memory channels (or physical memory slot) to be symmetrical. Meaning the slots are populated of the same type, timing, brand, capacity of module. However, this doesn't mean you can't run 1GB+2GB or 4GB+2GB or whatever combination as long as they are of the same type (DDR3).

If you go with 4GB+2GB, only the first 2GB from each channel (first 4GB total) will be addressed in dual channel while the remaining 2GB from the 4GB module will be addressed in single channel configuration. Memory timings, accesses and performance will be slightly degraded. Then again, if the machine aren't running memory intensive applications like games, etc.. it doesn't really matter.

owc is using nanya ram.. i bought mine from them.

the time i bought was ard 200+ for a pair
dunno wen will 4gb price drop

Hi David,

I have tried replacing the original 2G RAM for few days, everything seem okay. So I went back to the shop, and I got a new replacement for the 4G RAM, its not Samsung anymore, he replaced the faulty Samsung 4G RAM modules with 2x Transcend 2G modules (204P DDR3 1066 SO-DIMM). Hope this work !

Thanks again..

P/s: this is the data sheet for the Transcend module http://www.transcendusa.com/support/dlcent...U-2G_2840_s.pdf and the product info http://ec.transcendusa.com/product/ItemDet...D=TS256MSK64V1U

8GB 1066MHz DDR3 (PC3-8500) - 2X4GB SO-DIMMs (MC016G/A) = RM4309 which means 1pcs of 4GB 1066MHz DDR3 (PC3-8500) SO-DIMMs = RM2154.50

per pc? i can get abt rm 1k for a pc of 4gb 1066 ddr3

but still not worth the cost, how many apps apart from pro apps utilize that much of memory?

just 4 sharing

it appears that some people are having issues running 6GB o RAMs in SL, even if it was fine in leopard

Anyone here using Corsair DDR3 1066Mhz 2 x 2GB ram on their MB or MBP ? Any reviews ?

how much did you buy your ram?
where?
do you kno any place that sell in cheaper price?

May i know one question? Machines tech will change the RAM for me if i purchased from them? Or any other seller/reseller provide changing service?

Thalmes:

I m using Corsair DDR3 1066, 2 pcs 2GB rams on my MBP 13" 2.26mHz SnowLeopard.
Been using since last 3 weeks. Nil problem to any applications. Running all 3 editing programmes....CS4 , Picasa and Lightroom simultaneously...." not really fast and not too slow BUT not hang "...thus satisfy me. Compare to only 2GB running alone, it was too slow ( slow action responding ) when 3 programmes running together.

Price that time I bought : RM 165 for 1 piece 2GB
Location : Digital Mall PJ.

Which shop in Digital Mall?
