[QUOTE="Soulwar, post: 687293, member: 46986"] Actually, your Macbook can support up to 3GB. The (SR) Santa Rosa models can support 4GB. "However, third-parties have discovered that "pre-Santa Rosa" MacBook models equipped with a "Core [I]2[/I] Duo" processor will work with 3 GB of RAM (those with a Core [I]2[/I] Duo processor released prior to November 1, 2007) -- which requires a 2 GB module and a 1 GB module." "[I]This "mismatched" configuration will modestly compromise performance of video-related tasks but likely will be of interest for users who primarily use the system for CPU and memory-intensive tasks[/I]."
