  What's the best place besides Apple (too expensive) to buy memory for Macbook Pro?

  Processor: 2.33 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
  Memory: 2GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM

  Thanks!

  Just noticed i have 2 memory chips currently installed each 1GB. If i get a 2GB chip, is it going to work with another 1Gb i currently have, or do i have to get 2 same ones?

  Johndiggity,
  in online stores it says SO-DIMM for 200-Pin. But in my settings it says SDRAM. Are they going to work together? Will this SO-DIMM work on my machine? Should i just get 4GB(2 and 2) of the same stuff?

  You are better off just getting two new 2 gig (or 4 gig id you want) sticks. If they match you'll see better performance.

  One last question... can i actually get DDR 800 instead of 667? Will it work on my system?

  • It will still run at 667 I believe.– Jnr_Madison

  maybe 4 years ago, I asked the same question, and (then) a newstoday user (artdirector) told me to get it from crucial ram

  www.crucial.com

  I have only bought ram from them since then (on at least 3 laptops) way cheaper than apple, and same quality.

  • it has a system that will tell you what ram will work on your computer– Meeklo

  Meeklo,
  Thanks!

  I changed my mind last second because of you and saved $20 :)

  I was about to order from newegg, but then compared the prices and realized that Crucial's delivery is way cheaper. So, the total was $46.44 for 2GB and it should arrive on Tuesday by 4PM :)

  That's really cheap. Thanks all! I know i've asked a ton of questions here. Good that i checked what my maximum was.

  • I will always be thankful to artdirector, where ever he might be.. thanks!– Meeklo

  I know a few people on windows who have went out and got 4, 6 or 8gb of ram then call me to ask why it's only showing 3g installed. You need an x64 OS to run more than 3gb of ram on windows.

  • windows? i don't have windows.– arsyusha1/2

    I know, I was just putting it out there...– Jnr_Madison2/2
