is it true that the 2011 Mac mini uses a PC3-10600 ram? is there a specific ram that i need to use with it? or i can just buy any other brands as long its the right model. because i can get a 4gb ram for less than rm150.... Thanks

Greeting to all. I'm a new MBP user. just upgraded from 4G to 8G. first I tried to buy those as label compatible ram for macbook from lowyat. after checking around. some shops claim they are not selling these Ram and if I want I need to go to Time Square apple HQ.

So I come across Viewnet and ask them about these ram. they told me to try Kingston KVR1333D3S9 4G and just cost RM138 for 2x4G. the sale assitant told me if they ram has problem I can return to them. Since it is not very expensive. I give it a tried. after tested for over loop run. the ram looks OK and working great.

Hope this help those are looking for a upgrade.
Cheers!

what is the point to upgrade into more powerful hardware when you do not utilize it?

Might as well invest in SSD hard drive to improve the overall performance of the system.
