[QUOTE="NanoBite, post: 354253, member: 13565"] G'day jim007, You haven't stated which iMac you have, there are 3 possibilities: * [B]Early 2006[/B] - [I]17" 1.83GHz model shipped with 1 RAM module - 512Mb in the top of two available slots,[/I] * [B]Mid 2006[/B] - [I]17" 1.83GHz model shipped with 512Mb of Ram - 256Mb in each slot. If you upgrade the memory in your iMac (Mid 2006), make sure you have matching size SO-DIMMs in each slot for best graphics performance.[/I] * [B]Late 2006 [/B]- [I]17" 1.83GHz model shipped with 512Mb of RAM - 256Mb in each slot [/I] The maximum amount of upgradeable RAM for all 3 models is 2 GB of SO-DIMM which is 1 GB per slot. So, all of the Intel iMac models use the same type of memory, but the maximum capacity and recommended configuration varies depending on the system. These are the specifications of the type of RAM you need for your upgrade: [COLOR="Navy"][I][FONT="Fixedsys"]DDR2 SDRAM 667 MHz PC2-5300 SO DIMM 200-pin, unbuffered, nonparity, 1.8v.[/FONT][/I][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
