Comments about Crucial 4GB kit (2GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple iMac 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (24-inch) MB325LL/A System:

I've noticed no positive changes since upgrading my C2D iMac 2.8Ghz from it's standard 2 Gig to 4 Gig. In fact the only thing I've noticed is that it takes longer to start up after installation than it did before. Feel like I've wasted time and money to be honest. I'm doing lots of graphics stuff, PS, Corel Painter and like I say, have noticed zilch improvement.

Comments about Crucial 4GB kit (2GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple iMac 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (24-inch) MB325LL/A System:

Firstly, i was a bit hesistant about buying an upgrade for my iMac, but i'm so glad i did!

2GB to 4GB is double the memory but to me on applications and software it's so much more versatile and responsive to use than it was previously. I'm a casual gamer, i game here and there, but this RAM upgrade allows me to keep running a Hardware consuming game while running atleast 5 different software packages flawlessly, words cannot describe how great the RAM handles all the software at an excepitonal rate.

What i was also looking for was a boost in performance, but from 2GB to 4GB this obviously didn't happen mainly because it's a boost for reliable performances at a hardware intensive rate. 2GB is enough for any casual PC user truth be told, but if your more than casual about computers, a definate upgrade in RAM should be assured for the elite and light day users!

Improves performance, you can never have enough RAM under OSX, quick delivery, completely compatible, will improve the residual value of you're mac when you come to sell it. Just buy it, you know it makes sense to max out your pride and joy and for [£] its not worth not doing it.

Comments about Crucial 4GB kit (2GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple iMac 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (24-inch) MB325LL/A System:

Regularly use Crucial RAM either sourced directly or via a 3rd party, for my PC & Mac upgrades, in this instance it was to take an iMac to 4gb (much cheaper than having Apple do it from new, with the advantage that the 2gb taken out will slot right into my MacBook providing a free upgrade there too!), great price, great RAM, [...] (had one stick replaced in about 8 years, it was a fair few years old).

Comments about Crucial 4GB kit (2GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple iMac 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (24-inch) MB325LL/A System:

give it 8 out of 10 considering its only ddr2 and i have tested ddr3
my mac improved speed in general usage but nothing that will knock your socks off
put it this way if i could use 8 off this in my imac i would because then would be a great increase in performance
saying that its always better to have 4gb instead of 2gb :)
my score means very happy with.

Installing this RAM in the new ali iMac was so easy, just a single screw and no removing half the house furniture!

Doubling my RAM has really sped things up with RAM previews in After Effects going up to around 1 min for HD uncompressed footage, just what I wanted.

Initially had a problem with the order but Crucial sorted it out and returned another 2 dimms in a matter of days. absolutely recommended!
