[QUOTE="PACPhD, post: 504553, member: 31408"] I have a new iMac 24 2.8 Extreme. It came with 1gb ram in one slot. I read you need to upgrade both sides equally or it doesn't run effeciently. WOuld I be better off putting 1gb in the other side for now or can I put 2 gb on the empty side for a total of 3gb? I can't afford to go the 2+2gb right now. I also was told Macs are very sensitive to RAM and I need to buy decent quality. Is Samsung ($79/1gb vs $39/gb for the cheap stuff) a good product? Any recommendations for a good internet site and which RAM to purchase? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
