[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1850517, member: 110816"] If your logicboard is rated for that memory, you can try using a higher speed memory, but it won't work any faster since the logicboard is the limit. If you use memory with specs not designed for your Mac, you will experience strange issues. If, for example, you take 1600 MHz memory and put it in, the 1067 MHz speed of the memory bus will cause issues with retrieval which will result in page faults and like kernel panics. Most of us use OWC, Crucial and Kingston memory that's specific to our Macs. Not sure why you can't buy from the Internet, but you need the correct memory. [/QUOTE]
