Anybody can share with me...
whether I can upgrade my mac mini RAM with any brands available in our Garage Sale section???

Planning to upgrade from 2GB -- 8GB DDR3 1333MHz ram....

Please recommend me brand, seller or website to get the RAM...

I heard that Apple quite strict with the RAM...

Noob here..


Help!! Help!!

if you've the budget, you might want to look into the prospect of installing an ssd as well.

but if you're always tied for space then disregard what i said please :P apple just recently stepped up their trim support for ssd's with lion and there'll be a lot of things to iron out.

you can check here http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/990177 it has been discussed before about RAM.

aiyo i'm still considered noob lah

uniquex said he bout for 109 .. i want buy!!

I upgraded to 8GB on my Mac Mini Server, got the Mushkin RAM so far so good. Still have the Apple RAM (2X2GB), if anyone interested let me know.

guys need to upgrade my ram by this week where to find good price

your iMac is using DDR2 or DDR3 bro?

u cant use that bro. your imac is using DDR2, that ram is for DDR3

u need to look for DDR2 800Mhz. im sure the 1st bolded part isn't a typo cuz there's no DDR3 800mhz, lowest is 1066mhz

there's also no (to my knowledge) 4gb RAM modules for DDR2. highest u can go is 2x2gb since u only have 2 slots

And the prices for DDR2 is almost exactly double that of DDR3.

Actually there is DDR2 4GB but it's impossible to find in LYP. I saw a few [WTS] here but I think all have been sold.

Seriously why KTA ram so expensive, i have this Kingston HyperX high performance ram 8gb is cheaper than that.

cuz of the perception mac owners = filthy rich people

for those who are concerned about RAMs other than KTA ones not compatible with their Macs, both myself & stringfellow have just upgraded our Mac minis with a pair of Kingston KVR 4GB DDR3 1333Mhz. and it only costs us RM70 each.

am not sure whether does this apply only to new models only or old as well. old Macs are known to be quite picky when comes to RAM.

you can just head to any shops in LYP & Digital Mall. by most, they differ by few bucks per stick.

do remember asking 'em it is possible for full refund or exchange in case the RAMs are not compatible if you are replacing it on your own.

hope this is useful.

may i know where did you buy it?

the bolded statement will be your answer.

what i mean is what is the store name? so i cud get the same price as you

Any store will do. Difference of RM1-2 is minimal.

Conclusion,

I should looking for DDR2 on 800HMz, can't go higher HMz right?

This is suitable for my iMac

4GB Kingston Value Ram 2x2GB DDR2 800MHz

yeap correct. that RAM should suit you. how much is it? shud be expensive haha

try look for 2nd hand if u can. last month i bought 2nd hand 2x2gb ddr2-800 kingstons for rm100

what about Apple Mushkin RAM/ 2GBx2 800HMz DDR2 Voltage 1.80

RM110 per piece.

Any Folks use before and having no problem?
