What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Modules fit easily, are recognised instantly and do the job. Always used crucial for my mac memory in the past. Used on late 2019, 27 retina 5k imac. It's standard ddr4 sodimm.
Crucial ram upgrade has to be one of the best buys at the moment. Speeds things up and will be future proof for some time now. Go from 16 to 40gb and notice a lot of difference. Using a quad-core intel core i5 supplied with 8gb ram. Ghz i7, and then i... Read More
Put the new ram in slots 1&3, 8 gig in slot 2. Then the original ram modules swap to the new positions.
Highlights
Quality
I've used crucial before on other macs (mbp and mini) and have always found the quality to be good for the price.
Easy to install, high quality and very good value.
I'm very happy with the performance of the imac now - 40gb should be more than enough for my current statistical analysis and c... Read More
I bought these to upgrade the ram on my imac (2017) which came with the basic 16gb (2 x 8gb).
Price
The memory does what it says on the box and the price is excellent.
Bit of,a bargain at this price, (£125), bought to upgrade a recently purchased imac.
Packaging/appearance

Competitiveness
4 ghz quad-core intel core i5 supplied with 8gb ram.
Used as part of upgrading my 27in imac from its base 8 gb up to 24 gb.
Bought for a mac to increase ram considerably cheaper than getting proprietary product from manufacturer.

Having recently purchased one of the last 2020 27 imacs from amazon i thought it best to futureproof it as best i can so purchased some additional ram for it bearing in mind it only had 8gb so purchased this crucial ct2k16g4s266m 32 gb kit which consists of 2 off 16gb ddr4 2666 ram chips

Sure the new imacs are coming out but they seem to be missing ports on the back and realistically im not going to be rendering 5k videos for the foreseeable future mainly youtube emailing and some photo editing so have purchased affinity photo editing software so am well sorted
