[QUOTE="Snimo, post: 1369060, member: 237722"] Good Afternoon, I'm new to the forum, and wondered if anyone could help me. I recently purchased a 21.5" iMac, with an Intel i5 processor, and 4GB RAM (two 2GB sticks), this was the base price model if that helps :) It says in the user guide that its configurable to 8GB, i guess with the addition of two more 2GB sticks (I think it has space for 4 RAM slots). My question is, what is the best way for me to upgrade the RAM, do i just buy two 2GB sticks to put me up to 8GB, if so which RAM is the best for me to buy). Or can i purchase two 4GB sticks to upgrade the RAM to 12GB? Help would be much appreciated as i really don't want to mess it up. [/QUOTE]
