OWC 2GB Apple MacBook SODIMM DDR2 RAM Kit Review

Sidney · 21st September 2007, 17:32

After installing the OWC 2GB (1024MB x 2) Matched Pair DDR2 PC2-5300 667MHz DIMMs the computer RAM much faster under VMware. I could change mailboxes in outlook with lag of only a second at most. Running Photoshop Elements was also faster and the entire system in general ran smoother."

doing the upgrades yourself is good way to reduce the price of a mac

Have been using OWC for over 15 years now to upgrade my Macs. Always liked the company and their offers

Yes Apples RAM prices ridiculously overpriced (even by Apple standards).

it's because the Apple logo is put on the boxes manually and it takes a lot of time and effort
