8GB RAM for PSE 12?

Could PSE 12 use all the 8 GB RAM of my PC? Or is there a limit for PSE 12 like PSE 11?

In windows, it's the same. On a mac, PSE 12 is 64-bit, which means it can access more ram.

Intel Core i5 or i7 and 4GB ram or 8GB ram for school usage and gaming Football Manager 2013

Hi all,
I'm considering bying the new Macbook Air 13'' but i'm confused whether to go for the Intel Core i5 og i7 processor and with 4GB ram or 8GB ram? I will use it for school stuff, web browsing and for gaming Football Manager 2013. Which one should I go for?

i5 should be able to handle it, however as you know MBA isn't a gaming laptop. So you can't expect the best results. Will it run smoothly? Reading some of the reviews, it's not that terrible. However if you play football manager often I would upgrade to the i7. For occasional gaming, I would definitely stick with i5 because of better battery.
Tbh, I'm not much of a gamer. But I use Final Cut Pro, photoshop, and do other type of intense tasks.
I decided to go with the i5 for myself and spend the $150 on something else (like external drive, monitor).
Anyways to answer your question, it depends on how often you play. If you play 24/7 the upgrade will be worth it.
But for occasional gaming, again I would stick for better battery :)
(But external battery can be purchased vs you won't be able to upgrade to i7.... Just a random thought..)

8Gb RAM for a Pavilion dv4-1431us

I'd like to upgrade my Pavilion dv4-1431us up to 8Gb RAM.
Where can I get a QVL and/or specification for the 2x4Gb that will ensure compatibility with my Pavilion dv4-1431us?
Thanks so much. - Al

Thanks! But Crucial are also the most expensive.
Are there compatiple memory products (2x4Gb) from Kingston or Corsair?

8GB Ram for Mid'10 MacBook unibody 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

Hi need help here.. can someone or the Mac admin let me know if this Mac i am using has the ability to upgrade to a 8GB ram? i was told by Apple staff previously that it can be overclock to 8Gb, but now some staff of Apple said i can't.. i have google around & seen some optimistic ans.. but i need a assurance.. So please some Apple admin or any kind souls here with Macbook upgraded to a 8Gb ram & it's working, do let me know....

Hello JToock,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Yes, it will support 8 GB. According to the link provided below:
*Apple officially supports a maximum of 4 GB of RAM. Originally, this model was only unofficially capable of stably supporting 6 GB of RAM, but as confirmed by site sponsor OWC, they are capable of supporting 8 GB of RAM if updated to Boot ROM Version MB51.007D.B03 and running MacOS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard."

8gb ram for my mid2009 MacBook pro??

So I have a MacBook5,5 mid2009 MacBook pro and I want to upgrade to 8gb of ram and the problem is that one of my slots for the memory doesn't work anymore so I isn't have one working slot. The max ram I can have is 8gb for my MacBook. If I just get one 8gb stick would it work? And just leave the other slot empty? Also is there a difference if I just get one 8gb stick opposed to two 4gb sticks?

My mistake, they confirmed 8GB - not 16BG - apologies, which I had originally intended to say. Here is the link:

Windows 7 64-bit 8GB RAM doesn't start after installing X-Fi drivers

I have Windows 7 64 bit, 8GB RAM for a few months. After inserting an X-Fi Platinum Fatalty Champion Series (S/N MASB046A83R0772D; OP BN 06SB046A00005 Rev A) and installing Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi series driver 2.8.003 dated 26 Jun 09. The sounds plays OK, but after rebooting Windows doesn't start, with a CorruptRegistry error. I have installed Windows from scratch, but it only works until I install the X-Fi driver and reboot. Please help. I have searched the internet and found no solution to my problem besides a Wikipedia article that X-Fi has problem with 64-bit Vista with 4GB RAM or more.

Hi, I am also running windows 7 ultimate 64 with the same sound card and am using the july 5 driver. It works but i cant use the creative control panel as i get a black screen on start-up and when i uninstall the contol panel windows functions normally. I may have to go with the onboard sound to get all 4 speakers to work. I have 6 Gb of ram on a gigabyte X58 Mobo.

Suggestion for buying RAM for my laptop T420

Looking for suggestion buying 8GB RAM for my latptop T420
I recently bought a used T420 which came with a 2GB from an online site. Machine woks all great with the current config. I would like to install 8GB RAM to make it faster as I have been installing lot of softwares on it.
Bit confused what to look for as products have keywords like DDR3 / PCI slots / 1333MHz, 1.5V .. not sure what to get.. can someone suggest what should I be getting ? If possible can you share a link ..
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This is from Toms Hardware;
"2x4GB allows to run in dual channel, but no, not 2 times faster, a single stick operates as a 64bit device in dual channel the two sticks operate together as a 128bit device which in reality provides for up to an appr 15% gain in performance vs single channel - the lower the latency at a given freq the better performance, however have to take into account the freq also a 1333/CL7 set can't touch a 2133/9 set in sheer performance + the higher the freq the higher the bandwidth so the more data can be dealt with in a single clock cycle"
However, the best choice for you now, since you're upgrading your RAM is to go Full Monty on it and get 2x 8GB paired, because if you only decide on getting one, then you might have a hard time finding a matching 2nd module later. But there would not be a significant performance hit you'd take from getting a different module, not anything you'd notice at least. It's just good practice to get them paired. My 2 cents.
ThinkPad W540 (20BG) - i7-4800MQ/24GB // ThinkPad T440s (20AQ) - i7-4600U/12GB
ThinkPad T440p (20AW) - i7-4800MQ/16GB // ThinkPad Helix (3698-6EU) - i5-3337U/4GB
ThinkPad W520 (4282-W4Q) - i7-2720QM/32GB // ThinkPad T400 (2767-W1C) - P9500/8GB
ThinkPad T61 (7665-CTO) - T7700/4GB // ThinkPad T60p (8741-C2G) - T7400/4GB

Can my late 2008 macbook pro use 8GB ram now or snow leopard??

i got my new mbp in oct 2008 choose the 2.5GHz and order the 4GB Ram in apple store
i want to improve my mbp performance in snow leopard and using photoshop and maya
is it possible to upgrade my ram to 8 GB???

Actually the unibody machines switched from an Intel chipset to the NVidia MCP79 chipset.
The thing is tho, what I dont understand is why both late 2008 and mid 2009 motherboards use the came motherboard (both using the same chipset) and still limit the user from doing this. I thinks its just apple's way of saying "Buy a new computer"
Below in the links, NVidia say that their chipset used in the late 2008 systems can support 8GB but its up to Apple if they want to enable it or not.
It's really not fair at all, its been proven that the late 2008 systems can support the update just by a simple EFI update. *Get on it Apple!*

Upgraded 2012 MACBOOK PRO 2.6Ghz 8GB RAM 750 GB an alternate for RETINA MBP 15 or NOT?How good is its potential, reliability ?

I am a student and an aspiring filmmaker.I am also into digital cinematography (Canon 550D) and now will be venturing into editing. I am in DIRE NEED of help
I have a few problems regarding the purchase of Macbook pro.I live in Kolkata(India).I have been waiting for the past 1 and a half years to buy a Mac but after the release of Retina Macbook pro 15.I am left confused. Its near unupgradability and unreparibility rumors, delayed delivery, and 1st generation hardware issues especially the lack of Optical drive made me reconsider my decision of buying one.
I want to know whether I can go for the top model of Non Retina - 2.6Ghz 8GB RAM 750 GB 1 GB Nvidea as an alternate choice for Retina MBP pro or NOT ?
1.I wanted to buy the Retina Base model. Though it is very recently launched and there is a big risk buying it because they say it is unrepairable and unfixable as 'everything is glued into the motherboard' dialogue scares me. Something goes wrong after purchase and they send it back to US, is what the Apple officials said. Moreover they don’t keep one on a demo at Apple stores in kolkata. I have searched almost everywhere and have been to many resellers in my city but no use.
NOW,I am very sceptical about custom ordering a Macbook 15 non retina with High-Res 1680X1050p from US.I don’t know how much custom duty or expenses I have to pay and is it safe or not. Time is also a factor. Sadly, I have to buy one in Kolkata (my city) it seems.
2. I am opting for Macbook Pro 15,2.6 Ghz,8GB RAM. Buying it for the sole purpose of editing(audio, video, photos).I need something which is fast along with a good screen size. My original decision was to buy the 17inch but after the launch of Retina and the upgraded 15 inch, I am only looking forward to the upgraded models. Many say 13 inch is fast, but it features a dual core with a maximum of 2.9Ghz clockspeed. I on the other hand want a quad core i7 with good upgradability options and a good screen size. The 13 inch may be a favorite for many, but I want nothing less than a 15 inch. One good option I get with non Retina 15 is its upgradability, while many say Retina MBP 15 can be made upgradable in future but that time is yet to come and by the time the whole web becomes ‘retina friendly’ and all applications supporting its 2880X1800 resolution, I may end up waiting only. Yes the picture quality remains unbeatable when compared to Retina Pro and it will always be. Though friends, I am a student, I want something which is fast, can run almost anything and future dependable. Retina Mac book Pro in India is 2799 USD - Base model. I cannot pay that amount just for the screen. As far as speed is concerned, I plan to get an OWC SSD and a 16 GB OWC RAM in the future resulting in greater speed when comparing the configuration with Retina 15.That problem is solved.
My problem here is this: The web is filled with reviews and videos of Retina Macbook Pro and the upgraded Macbook Pro 15 is just no where, if you even find a few videos, they only feature unboxing videos of Macbook pro 15 (i7-2.3Ghz-4GB-500GB-500MB Nvidea).Other videos compare the 2.3ghz model with Retina 15 pro. They are not elaborate like the 15 Retina Pro reviews.
1. I want to know about the real performance, potential, pros, cons of Macbook Pro 15 (i7 2.6Ghz 8GB RAM 750 GB 1GB Nvidea graphics).
So my question to you is what is your opinion on the 15 inch non retina ? HOW FAST do you think is the new upgraded 15inch non retina i7-2.6Ghz-8GB-750GB model really is ?I have read on many mac forums and seen on a particular youtube video that 15inch 2.3Ghz model takes an alarming 40 seconds to start because of traditional hard drive ! A normal DELL Inspiron starts at 15 secs max with i3+4 GB RAM and this particularly confuses me about the whole quad core processing and stuff and speed when running applications like C6,FCP,Lightroom etc is to be determined in regard to the model I want to buy.
2. Is it necessary to buy APPLE CARE WARRANTY when buying a laptop from Apple.What are the benefits and how is it different form the normal customer care ?
3. Please enlighten me on some nice headphones from Sennheizer under 90 USD.I am considering Sennheiser HD 439.I am not a bass freak and I want something to use for listening to voice, loud clear. In short, a headphone for all purpose. I heard the HD 449 is not that good compared to HD 439.They say it is Jazz oriented. Another confusion !
Finally, If you know anyone who knows about this configuration (15inch 2.6 8GB RAM 750GB) and its performance than please help me out my friends. Any small detail, input, you feel like please let me know. Please help me be sure and satisfied am buying my Macbook Pro very soon and I am awaiting your response.

Well, are you talking about a 750 Hard Drive or SSD? If SSD (quite expensive) it will certainly be as fast. One option is to get the smallest HD they have and with the Non Retina you can upgrade the HD to an SSD later or now but save a little money. Check with iFixit or OWC for instructions. HD's do take longer to start up and load, but once open, the processor and video work just the same as on the Retina model. The SSD speed is nice, but really not critical. So you have to wait a minute for your computer to boot up. The other big question is you need to find out if the non-retina model will take 16GB of ram. According to OWC's site, it will, 16GB for 150USD. Once you get programs open and resident in ram, everything will fly.

Hello
Im wondering that you want to upgrade to 8GB RAM... Normally 3 or 4GB should be more as enough for all applicaions at the moment.
Anyway, as Jayjay said its not possible to upgrade to 8GB. A friend of me has a Satellite A300 and the user manual says that it can upgrade to 4GB or 2GB (depending on the chipset). So if you have a PM965/GM965/RS690M chipset you can upgrade it to 4GB. Otherwise you can only use up to 2GB.
I have upgraded my Toshiba notebook with Kingston RAM. This is high quality RAM and has a good compatibility. I never had problems with such modules.
Check this!!
Bye

Your 14 days are up, however you could take your case to Apple Inc. regarding same,
however those are the stipulations.
RAM cannot be upgraded however, period, its permanent on the logic board after mfg.
As for the SSD (solid state drive), upgrading same is a bad premise 9 times out of 10.
No notebooks is a mass storage device, and you need an external HD for data redundancy and backups regardless.
data that is static on your SSD and not used very often has no logical reason to be ON the notebooks, and best saved on a superslim external HD ($60)
SSD are very expensive, even a small one, HD are cheap as dirt and users are recommended to have one regardless for many good reasons.
