Early 2008 iMac 2.4Ghz. Ram Upgrade

Hi, I have Kingston KTA-MB667/2G (2x2Gb kit) that i used on my Macbook Pro. Anyhow got ride of MacBook Pro kept the ram. Just bought a Early 2008 iMac 2.4Ghz Refurb with 1Gb of Ram (PC-6400 - 800Mhz). I am wondering if my Macbook Pro ram will work in the iMac. I know the ram will probably run slower as i am installing 667Mhz on a system that can support 800Mhz, but i am running memory intensive apps (vista on parallels, etc...) thus want more ram. Rather use the ram i already have instead of spending 60$ on a new 800mhz kit (times are tough right?).

I know the ram will probably run slower as i am installing 667Mhz on a system that can support 800Mhz
Actually, the RAM will run at the speed designated by the logic board. So if you installed faster RAM, it would not run any faster. If you installed slower RAM, it probably will not work, because the logic board will try to run it at the specified faster speed.

  • I have a 24" early 2008 iMac. Can i upgrade the Logic Board?

    For some reason only Steve jobs will know this iMac only was able to have a maximum 4 Gb Ram and 512 Mb graphics.
    To buy a new one with 32 Gb RAM and 2 GB graphics would cost AU$3,000.00.
    Therefore I was wanting to know if you could just drop in a new Logic Board with 32Gb RAM and 2 Gb graphics into the old machine?

    iMacs are Not like PC's, which are generic and have commonly interchangeable parts.  They are also prone to all sorts of driver conflicts between different versions of hardware that can be installed.  Apple avoided all these conflict frustrations by building each model of Mac to a specific, tightly controlled standard "that just works right out of the box".  But they are Not upgradeable after purchase except for RAM Upgrades and Hard Drive replacement.  That's the tradeoff between getting a PC and getting a Mac.
    Hope this helps

  • Early 2008 MacBook SSD and RAM Upgrade Compatability

    I have an early 2008 macbook running OS X 10.5.8. It has a 2.1 GHz Core 2 Duo, 1 GB 667 MHz DDR2, and a 120GB 5400 RPM drive. It’s model MacBook 4,1. Obviously, it could use some upgrades. It still works fine, but is just slow. I can’t afford a new one, and think I can still get some life out of this one. I am thinking about the following upgrades:
    Samsung 840 EVO 120GB SSD - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820147247
    OWC 4GB (2x2) Memory Upgrade - http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/5300DDR2S4GP/
    Transcend USB 2.0 Enclosure for the old hard drive currently in it - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817349001
    I also plan on putting OS X 10.7 (lion) on the new SSD, unless anybody thinks keeping it at Leopard or Snow Leopard would be a better choice, performance wise.
    Does anybody see any compatibility issue with any of these upgrades, or have any suggestions as to better upgrades? I realize the MacBook can only support SATA I, so it won’t get the full SATA III benefit of the SSD, but it should still be a huge performance upgrade. Thank you for any help!

    have you completed the upgrade yet? I also wanted to know. Someone is trying to trade me their 2008 MB Pro as well (for my Canon L lens), I think it's the 4GB already one and I also have a crucial SSD from my Dell that I can put in. I need to have the MB to run smoothly on PS CS6 & LR5 Please let us know what the results are. What do you guys thinkg? is it enough to run those smoothly?
    Thank you

  • Early 2008 iMac and Kingmax ram?

    Dear everyone from apple discussions, Hi!
    When I install new ram in both slots, imac is not booting,
    when I install old ram in one slot, and new in second, it boots, apparently recognising 3gb of ram.
    Can anyone tell me where am I mistaking!
    *quote from a user manual of ram compatible with my iMac:*
    "Your iMac comes with at least 1 gigabyte (GB) of Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2) Synchronous Dynamic Random Access (SDRAM) memory installed. You can add 1 GB or 2 GB memory modules for a maximum of 4 GB of memory. Memory modules must meet the following specifications:
    - Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Module (SO-DIMM) format
    - 800 MHz, PC2-6400, DDR2 compliant (also referred to as DDR2 800)
    - Unbuffered and unregistered"
    *RAM I bought:*
    2x Kingmax 2GB, SO DIMM DDRII 800 non-ECC
    http://www.kingmax.com/en03_productcontent.asp?sn=22
    Regards, martin

    Even if Kingmax has system specific bandwidth PC2-6400 800MHz DDR2 SDRAM modules for exchange, there is still no guarantee they will work until you test them in your iMac.
    To avoid testing ram yourself and going thru all the hassle of returning ram, I suggest ordering from one of the following suppliers.

  • I have Garageband version 4.1.2 (248.7) installed on my early 2008 IMAC Version 10.5.8. I have never upgraded but have a LOT of projects. If I upgrade my operating system to the next level (10.6?), will my GB version still work? Do I need to upgrade GB?

    the only version you can buy new is v6,a nd it should open older projects without issue ... however you could keep 4 around:

  • Problem with Early 2008 iMac upgrade to Corsair 2x2b memory kit

    I am upgrading my Early 2008 iMac 20-inch model to have 4 gb memory.
    My memory choice is Corsair Memory VS4GSDSKIT800D2 4 GB Kit (2x2GB) PC2-6400 800Mhz 200-pin DDR2 SODIMM Dual Channel Laptop Memory
    More model information here:
    Model Name:          iMac 
    Model Identifier:          iMac8,1
    Based on Apple's documentation here:http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1759
    You can use any Small-Outline dual inline memory modules (SO-DIMMS) that meets all of these criteria:
    PC2-6400
    Unbuffered
    Nonparity
    200-pin
    800 MHz
    DDR2 SDRAM
    I think there should be no hardware compatibility issue here.
    I installed following the instructions from Apple.com as well. Except I find it odd that there wasn't a very clear "click" sound to indicate a proper installment during the process. I take the old memories out and simply pushed the new chips into the compartment without doing anything else. Put everything back, connect the power cord and press the power button.
    After I upgrade the memory, either the machine won't turn on, or it will beep with a warning sound forever unless I turn the power off.
    I wonder if I should get a refund, change to either Kingston or Crucial's memory or it is for some other reason.
    I didn't have such issue with upgrading my macbook with Kingston's chips, so maybe iMac doesn't support Corsair well?
    Also, I heard around here that my machine seems to support 6gb memory instead of 4gb. Is there a brand requirement like I have to get Crucial or OWC's chips to acccomplish it? Source: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iMac/Intel_Core_2_Duo_PC2-6400

    I was worried to break anything if I push too hard. It seemed like pushing the same way with original chips had no issues. It is certainly not as easy as the macbook for the clip part.
    Sometime the blades on after market modules are slightly thicker and they needs a little more force to be fully seated in the slots.
    ttback wrote:
    Do you think there would be any drawback if I change my upgrade plan to 6gb from OWC?
    That's totally up to you? Check with the seller, because most online sellers will want to charge a restocking and shipping.

  • Early 2008 iMac (8,1) randomly goes into sleep mode

    Hey,
    My early 2008 iMac (8,1) on 10.8.2 goes into sleep mode by itself. I've played around in Energy Saver, tried resetting SMC, NVRAM, replaced HDD, reformatted HDD, installed smcFanControl, reinstalled Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion. None of that worked. Took it to the Genius bar, performed some diagnostics tests and they said everything worked properly. Does anybody have the same problem? I can still use the computer for general computer use (light web surfing and e-mailing), but it seems to go into sleep mode when I have a lot of applications open and especially when watching videos. I've tried researching this problem, but I've haven't found a definitive answer. Right now, the Genius that I've been talking to thinks it may be the RAM. I'm waiting on new shipments of test RAM to arrive at the Apple Store for him to properly diagnose.
    Thanks,
    Jason
    iMac (8,1)
    2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    2x2 GB 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB
    1TB 7200 RPM SATA ST1000DM003-1CH162
    If you want to read the whole time line, I've included it here. I apologize for it being so long.
    At first I was running Lion (10.7.5) and the computer would enter sleep mode whenever I was doing anything with video. For example, watching YouTube videos and chatting on FaceTime. And funny enough, I distinctly remember watching a bunch of movies with VLC and the computer did not go to sleep (Although, this is not true anymore). I could wake the computer up and use it, however within a few minutes the computer would re-enter sleep mode. The computer seemed fine and I could access all of my files. Tried resetting SMC and it did not resolve the issue.
    I made a Genius appointment to see if they were familiar with the issue. The iMac passed the in-store diagnostics test; it said all the components were functioning properly. He told me to bring it home to do a fresh re-install of my OS and then run my computer to see if the problem persisted. I took it home and reformatted my HDD with a 35-pass erase, re-installed Snow Leopard (10.6.8) and declined to transfer any backups from Time Machine. I was using a fresh system and sure enough, the problem persited. Tried doing the same thing again but with Lion (10.7.5) and still no luck. So I made another appointment and it passed the in-store diagnostics test again. I let them keep the computer for a 24-hour diagnostics test. They told me they would diagnose my computer with the OS on my HDD as well as a copy of OS that the Apple store deemed 'good' on an external HDD. The Genius called me and told me that my HDD failed their 24-hour diagnostics test and recommended I replace it. I initially had a 750 GB HDD, and the Apple Store could only offer me a 500 GB HDD ($200). I opted to take my computer to Carbon Computing, an authorized dealer in Toronto, to have a 1 TB Seagate HDD ($170) installed with no OS on it. I brought it home, performed another 35-pass erase and installed Snow Leopard. Problem still persisted. Repeated with Lion, still unsuccessful. Looking back, I was so excited that I just had to replace the HDD to fix the problem, I forgot to ask the guy if he could recreate the issue.
    I began to suspect that it was a heating issue. So I installed Temperature Monitor and smcFanControl, and cleaned the fans as much as I could without taking the computer apart. Without smcFC on I tried to recreate the problem and I noticed that the Power Supply Position 1 reached 95 degrees Celsius, and Graphics Processor Temperature Diode reached 97 degrees Celsius before entering sleep mode. I don't know much about temperature sensors and what they monitor specifically, and so I couldn't draw any conclusions from that data. I turned on smcFC and cranked the optical drive speed to 2000 RPM, HDD to 3000, and CPU to 3000. The computer still went to sleep but the temperatures were below 90 degrees Celsius before entering sleep mode. I've tried researching here and on the internet about normal operating temperature ranges of iMacs and generally found that most do reached that temperature but they do not go to sleep mode.
    Then I thought it may be a problem with Lion so I upgraded to Mountain Lion. The issue still persisted. Tried resetting SMC and NVRAM, did not resolve issue.
    I called the same Apple Store explaining to them that their recommendation of replacing the HDD did not resolve the issue. They told me to bring it in and have them check it out again. I went through the same process I did before; the iMac passed all of their diagnostic tests. The Genius told me this time he will test out the RAM. He called me and told me that he could replicate the problem and so he proceeded to put in a stick of 'good' Apple RAM, but the computer would not work. He said the 'good' Apple RAM was damaged, either before or in the process of putting it in. He plugged in my old stick of RAM and the computer worked. He tried to recreate the problem and claimed that the computer ran for over 24 hours with an existing movie on my HDD playing and it did not go to sleep mode. However, once I brought it home I played the same movie right away and it turned off 17 minutes into the movie. Tried resetting SMC and NVRAM again, ran the movie again, still went to sleep.
    And that's the story for now...

    Now to find out WHY it does it at home only. How hot is it at home? Have you checked the AC current/voltage at home?
    Well they were able to replicate the issue at the Apple Store the second time I left my computer there. Anyway, we don't have any heating on at my house at the moment. It's usually from around 20-23 degrees Celsius (72-75 F). Temperature Monitor says ambient temperature is 30 degree C though...
    I'm not really sure how to check the AC current/voltage at home, but my computer worked before I moved it. So I'm not sure if that is the issue.
    I normally only have speakers set up to my computer and a wired keyboard. The speakers are powered separately. I would assume that at the Apple Store only the power cord and wired keyboard are connected.
    What is the Power Supply Position? And what does it do?
    Thanks for your help!

  • Early 2008 iMac HDD Noise

    Hi everyone,
    Technical Specifications for my Early 2008 iMac (per Apple Menu > About This Mac > More Info):
    Processor: 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory: 6 GB 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB
    Software: OS X 10.8.1 (12B19)
    Storage: 227.34 GB free of 319.21 GB
    Discussion:
    To my recollection, when I first purchased the iMac, it was silent. Recently, however, I have noticed that the HDD makes an audible, though quiet -- rattle. The Activity Monitor seems to indicate that the sound occurs when the computer writes data to the HDD; that is, when "Data written/sec:" increases from 0 bytes/sec, the sound begins.
    I have recorded the sound with 'Voice Memos.app' -- with my iPhone pressed against the back of the iMac -- and have uploaded it here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/bpw3tgkw7xco03j/OJC6XK6HLk
    In the previous recording, the sound in question may be heard in addition to the iMac's fans.
    I've searched various forums and read several discussions about HDD noises, but I haven't come across a sound byte like the one I just posted. If it's a common sound that has people worried, I'd like it to be available for people to hear.
    Question:
    Does this sound "normal", or is my HDD on its way out? If the latter, how long do you think it'll be before it fails?
    Thanks,
    Rob
    For the curious:
    My iMac originally had 2 GB of RAM. Due to the demands of heavy computation, it was necessary to upgrade the RAM. I saw elsewhere that the iMac8,1 model may handle 6 GB of RAM -- despite Apple's claim of 4 GB -- and thus upgraded to 6 GB (purchased from OWC).
    Message was edited by: RobL28

    Some further information:
    I have run:
    Apple Hardware Test (AHT) -- though not the extended version
    Rember -- to test the RAM, because the extended version of AHT froze during the RAM test
    TechTool Deluxe Version 3.1.2
    SMARTReporter 2.7
    Drive Alert
    SMART Utility
    None of the above tests have indicated any problem with the hardware. Nevertheless, I understand that these tests can fail to identify problems.

  • Early 2008 iMac won't boot up

    My early 2008 iMac was getting slow. It didn't really seem to have anything wrong with it other than being a 5 yr old middle of the line model with 4 GB of ram. But I decided it was time to upgrade and so bought a new iMac. After transfering files & apps to the new computer, I shut down the old one and moved it. I used it in my piano teaching studio, and so was intending to set it up for students to use. When I went to boot it up, however, it wouldn't. I unplugged it (from the computer and the outlet), then plugged it back in after a couple of minutes with no luck. I was told some time ago you didn't have to do this, but not knowing of anything else to try, I unplugged it again and then tried pressing the power button as I plugged it back in. No luck.
    Any thing else I might try before taking it to the Apple store and seeing if they can start it?

    Thanks for trying. I'd rest SMC before, but did it again just now with no luck. One thing that's weird is that since I moved it, the power cord, keyboard usb cable and wireless mouse usb transmitter have been difficult to remove. I actually had to get a pair of pliers to remove the transmitter (gripping the transmitter firmly but gently through a cloth so as not to damage it). I don't know if that would have anything connection to it not starting (I can't imagine how), but it's a notable change.

  • We have an early 2008 imac and we realize it is not long for this world but we would like to get a few more months out of it until we can afford a newer one. Can we put in a larger hard drive and add some memory?

    Would it be worthwhile to put in a larger hard drive and boost the memory on our early 2008 iMac? We realize it is on borrowed time but we would like to squeeze a little more time out of it.

    Problem description:
    This iMac is running awfully slow, and freezes up often

    You are only running on 2GB of RAM. IMHO 4GB woud be the minimum to realistically run Mavericks on, although the more the better.

  • My Early 2008 iMac freeze with no apparent reason

    I have an Early 2008 iMac (2.66GHz Core 2 Duo with 4GB RAM).
    Since installing Lion, sometimes the computer freezes without apparent reason.
    The only thing I'm sure is that this is NOT the same as the Quicktime video problem – I wasn't watching a Quicktime video, nor a Flash website when it froze. Actually, today happened while I wasnt' doing anything: the computer was on, but I was at launch.
    Anyway, what happens is really strange: the screen freeze, I can't do things like change volume, but the mouse still works – albeit without producing results on screen such as dock magnification etc. Also, while the computer was frozen a Time Machine backup occured as scheduled, and I was able to stream my computer's music to my iPhone using the Home Sharing feature.
    The clock also remain frozen (at 12:51), so I looked at the logs and this is what I found:

    At this point I restarted the computer using the power button.
    For the record, a few months ago I replaced the hard drive thinking it could be the problem – good thing I needed more space anyway because it happened twice AFTER I replaced it.
    Any help?

    Welcome to Lion, I have 10.7.4 and this has been a problem every two weeks or so since 10.7.1. Fun.

  • Is my early 2008 iMac capable of running OSX 10.8.3?

    A friend found that his Mac Pro is not capable of running Mountain Lion. He sent me an Apple link that listed computers unsuitable for the upgrade, one of which was his. I can't find the link again after an hour of typing in every conceivable version of the query: "Computers that are unsuitable for Mountain Lion". The thing is that I'm wondering whether my early 2008 iMac is behaving badly because it's not up to OSX 10.8.3. I get spinning umbrellas ten times as often as I used to and quite regularly have to power down and restart to fix the problem. Programmes like iPhoto, iMovie, iTunes and even Safari take an age to load. I use MacScan and Clean my Mac regularly and I don't do any business with weird or unknown apps.
