[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1861610, member: 110816"] You do NOT want "better spec" RAM, you want to buy RAM that matches the requirements of the system. Buying RAM with different CAS latencies will cause memory corruption and will lead to kernel panics. Faster RAM than what the bus support is waste of money since the RAM is just going to operate at the lower bus speed and if the speed is sufficiently out of spec for the RAM, it will misbehave. Stick with OWC/Crucial and find RAM that matches the stock RAM exactly and you will NOT have any issues. [/QUOTE]
