[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1719363, member: 56379"] Technically there are no 2016 iMac's yet. What's being sold currently are 2015 models. You didn't specify what iMac model you were referring to…but I'm going to assume you're talking about 21" models…since this model fits the question. If you look carefully…the ram on 21" 2015 iMac's is soldered in. Which means someone purchasing one of these needs to decide at the time of purchase whether to get 8gig or 16gig of ram (ram not upgradeable after purchase). Thus the question about 8gig DIMMS does not apply. On the other hand. 2015 27" iMac's can have up to 64gig of ram (ram on 27" models is upgradeable).:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
