Re: Memory Help
Thanks to you all for your great help. Much appreciated. The website links are really helpful.

Memory Help
Hi there. I have a 2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac purchased Dec 2007 It has 2 x 1GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM inside. I was considering upgrading to 4GB If I purchased 2 x 2GB 1066Mhz DDR3 SDRAM will this work in my machine? Would appreciate some help.
