Apple 17-INCH LATE 2006 CD, 17-INCH MID 2006 manual DDR Memory

DDR Memory

The iMac computer has two SDRAM slots in the bottom of the computer. The iMac ships from the factory with at least 512 MB of DDR2 SDRAM, installed as a 256 MB DIMM in the top slot and a

256 MB DIMM in the bottom slot. (The computer may come with more RAM, depending on how the computer was ordered from Apple.)

Although you can install a single SO-DIMM, it is recommended that memory be installed in matched pairs for improved graphics performance.

The maximum amount of RAM you can install in the iMac is 2 GB total (a 1 GB SO-DIMM in each of the two slots). You can use small-outline dual inline memory modules (SO-DIMMS) of 512 MB or

1 GB that meet all of these criteria:

•PC2-5300

•unbuffered

•nonparity

•200-pin

•667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM

Note: DIMMs with any of the following features are NOT supported in this iMac:

•registers or buffers

•PLLs

•ECC

•parity

•EDO RAM
