Hi guys,

I'm currently using iMac 21.5 inch Mid 2011 model, running 2.5 Ghz i5 and 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3

I want to upgrade the RAM. Is it possible, and how to do it? how big can I upgrade it to? and what are the price of these RAMs?

Thanks

you can go upto 32GB
your iMac has 4 slots, each capable of supporting 8GB
the RAM slot is actually just below your iMac.
you will see a slot with 2 screws, open it and you can easily change the RAM

Ok thank you. Which RAM should I go for, and how much will it cost each, for example, for 8GB a piece

KVR sits under RM150 depending on where you buy for a piece of 8GB nowadays... it is basically the same memory but kingston claims they certify it for apple machines...i believe, the service centers also would not kacau so much if the machine is sent in with KTA memory installed...

it's more money... but buys you peace of mind... i have a lot of friends who goes for KVR because it is almost half the price at it's lowest compared to KTA and they have no issues...
