[QUOTE="XJ-linux, post: 616674, member: 33722"] I think you only have 3.3GB. I have the same set up, but on my 2.16Ghz MB with the same results. It says 4GB everywhere I look, but only utilizes slightly over 3GB. On a bright note, I upgraded to 4GB from 3GB when the 2GB chip I bought for my Mac Mini would not upgrade it to 3GB (it was a core solo that I added a 2.16Ghz CPU to and just wouldn't make the hop from 2GB > 3GB). The MB is definitely quicker all around with 2 x 2GB chips than with 1GB + 2GB chips. [/QUOTE]
