Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a Apple iMac 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (24-inch) System:

At first I thought I was having a problem with the new Crucial memory when my applications started freezing up. As it turns out, I just did not have it fully seated in the iMac slot. So, I took it out, switched sides, and pushed it in until it clicked.

Now my Mac is running great! As a graphic designer, I have multiple weighty applications opened all at once and need to go back and forth between them. Speed and performance are much better. And the price was more than reasonable. Thanks Crucial!

Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a Apple iMac 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (24-inch) System:

I've been running my 24" Dual Core iMac on 1Gb of memory for over a year now. Whenever I had more than one application open, performance became sluggish when switching applications. When developing software or working on photos, the machine was almost unusable.

I decided that enough was enough, and I maxed out the system with 4 Gb of ram (two 2Gb chips). I couldn't be more pleased with the performance and stability of my system now. If you have one of these computers you owe it to yourself to make it run the best it can. This is an inexpensive upgrade and worth every penny.

Comments about Crucial 2GB Upgrade for a Apple iMac 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (24-inch) System:

I occasionally do some ram-intensive stuff like video conversions and editing for presentations and have noticed a considerable improvement in these tasks after maxing out the ram for my PB and iMacs. The module has proven to be flawlessly effective. Between the Apple installation instructions and Crucial's help getting the old module out and the new one in was a breeze. The one major anxiety I had was not knowing which module to buy. Crucial solves the problem by having you download a small program which interrogates your system and presents you with the options. From there it is just click and go. Very, very easy.
