[QUOTE="countfufu, post: 1614994, member: 236999"] I use a macbook pro 13'' early 2011 running OS X 10.9.5. I upgraded my RAM from 4 GB to 8 GB after experiencing beach balls, system freezing and the fan working overtime after a hard drive replacement and clean install. It hasn't improved that much though, the beach balls, freezing and fan issues still occur even after a shutdown and only opening one program. I used the crucial.com scanner to choose the RAM so I doubt that the chips themselves are the problem Is there any way to fix this? Would an upgrade to Yosemite help? [/QUOTE]
