Is the iMac compatible with RAM clocked at PC3-10666?

I have a mid-2011 21.5" iMac with the 2.8GHz Quad-Core i7. It's currently at 4GB since $300 for 16GB RAM was just too much.
The specs tell me that this model iMac is compatible with DDR3 1333MHz PC3-10600 RAM. I've been looking around for 4x4GB units, but most of the ones I find are all DDR3-1333MHz PC3-10666, not PC3-10600.
Some sources I've read tell me that there's no discernable difference between the two, but I want to be sure before I buy anything. Most of those questions pertained to custom rigs.
Will my iMac accept RAM clocked at PC3-10666?

that will be fine, as confirmed in this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/16588791#16588791

  • I would like to buy a flat bed scanner in the uk compatible with my iMAc 10.8.4

    I would like to buy a flat bed scanner in the uk compatible with my iMAc 10.8.4. There seems to be a gap of information between Apple and say Epson on what drivers are suitable any Ideas?

    If I look at a scanner from an online store and can't find whether it is Mac compatible there, I go to the manufacturer website and check for compatibility. Sometimes I'll find the Mac logo embedded in the scanner photo, other times I'll have to select the driver link and find if there's a download for the Mac OS I'm using.
    So far every scanner I've ever bought (that wasn't years old on some fire sale table at Staples) has been Mac compatible. Of course sometimes when the OS is updated it takes time for the manufacturer to update the driver software (and sometimes it chooses not to) but since 10.8 has been out for almost a year the former isn't going to be a problem.

  • Are intel iMacs compatible with the M9177B/A cinema display

    Are intel iMacs compatible with the M9177B/A cinema display please?

    That Display has DVI input. So if you have a 2009 iMac with MiniDisplay port output as your profile suggest's...?
    Then you will need a > Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter - Apple Store (U.S.) and maybe a DVI cable if one is not with the monitor.

  • Can PC software work on the iMac G5 with Intel?

    Can PC software work with the iMac G5 with Intel processor? I need to know! And also, is there a new apple computer coming out next year (2007) that will be able to run PC software? I am mainly asking because I want to know if I will be able to run PC games on iMac G5 with Intel or the new computer coming out in 2007. I need to know!
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  
    iMac G5 Intel Processor   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Just an idea for you. There is an entire Apple Discussion forum dedicated to Boot Camp and Windows XP.
    Whereas, not everyone here with an Intel iMac has installed, tried to install or has experience with BC & XP, everyone there has or at least has an interest. You may attract help more quickly there.
    The Forum is at the bottom of the main Apple Discussions page under Windows Compatible Technology.
    Here is a link;
    Forum: Boot Camp Public Beta
    Panther was the version of Mac OS X before the current version, Tiger. Apple Computer does not release information in advance of its introductions of new hardware/software and the rules of the Apple Disussions forbid "speculation." Boot Canp is Beta because it is not yet a permanent part of Mac OS X. It works fine. It does not require constant updates. It comes with instructions for its own installation as well for Windows XP SP2. You have to purchase Windows from Microsoft. Folks report that games run fine and that Windows runs better on their Macs than it ever did on their PCs!

  • HT4972 Is the update compatible with 3rd Generation Ipod Touch

    Hello Im JS.Is the update compatible with 3rd Generation Ipod Touch. Thank You have a nice day.

    What update?
    iOS 5 is compatible with a 3G (as well as 4G) iPod. However, if you are stuck with 4.2.1 that indicates that you really have a 2G iPod. those can only go to 4.1.2. See:
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • Is the gpib232ct compatible with a macintosh?

    I'm trying to connect an hp 4145 with a macintosh. I've used the gpib232ct. Is there a way to make this work? Is the mac compatible with the gpib232ct?

    Hi,
    I asssume you are using the GPIB-232CT-A in S mode, to act as the controller. Some version of the GPIB driver supported the GPIB-232CT-A directly. Check here.
    If not, the User manual has the serial commands you can use in S mode to control the GPIB-232CT-A.
    Finally, I know some MACs use RS422 ports. Make sure you have a RS-232 port.

  • Is the ios8 compatible with the iphone 4s

    Is the ios8 compatible with the iphone 4s

    Compatible?  Well, let's just say that it works. 
    In my case it works well enough for me to keep me from joining the stampede to buy an iPhone 6.  The main reason why I decided to take a chance on the upgrade was for the enhanced security features.
    The big lesson that I learned is to be patient with the installation process.
    When upgrading to IOS8 on a 4S, allow approximately 1-1/2 to 2 hours, even when using a reasonably high-speed connection.  Because the installation takes more than 4GB of storage on the device, you probably will have to temporarily delete podcasts, downloaded iBooks, videos, and larger apps like Numbers, Pages, and Keynote even before you may download the update.
    My total time using a was:
    Making space on my 16GB 4S: 10 minutes (but, to be fair,  a little housecleaning was overdue)
    Download time at approximately 31-33 mbps: <6 minutes
    "Preparing": 50 minutes
    "Installation" ""Verification" and initial restart:  55 minutes
    I have observed a very slight hesitation or slowdown when opening some apps for the first time,  but it is not annoying.  I have not observed any noticeable effect on battery life (which was not that wonderful using IOS7), nor the heat that some people have reported.

  • Is the iPhone compatible with the Music Link I have in my 2006 Honda Accord

    I have a 2006 Honda Accord with Music Link so I can play my iPod through the speakers. Is the iPhone compatible with this?

    Welcome to the forums.
    It appears that update 1.1.2 (or perhaps even 1.1.1) "fixed" some issues with the iPhone not working with certain iPod car stereo systems. However, not all seem to be working. As others have suggested, trying it may be the only way to know for sure.
    If you haven't bought it yet and this is one factor then perhaps you could borrow a friend's iPhone to see. However, I wouldn't make this the primary reason to buy an iPhone.

  • Anyone Else Notice How Tempermental the iMac is with 3rd Party RAM?

    I recently upgraded my 2007 iMac so Lion could run more smoothly by adding RAM from Crucial.
    The machine worked fine for a few days then I started experiencing kernal panics.  I suspected my new RAM wasn't seeded properly.  The last straw was when I shut down the system to re-seed the RAM and turned it back on, the machine beeped three times at few second intervals (which indicates a problem with RAM) and would not power on.
    I moved it to a different slot--still no joy.  In an effort to just get the machine started, I tried other 3rd party RAM that was compatible with the iMac that I had lying around.  Still no go as the machine would beep loudly and not power on.
    I finally found some RAM I had taken out of my 2007 Macbook Pro when I upgraded it.  It was the original RAM that had come with the Macbook Pro.  It worked like a charm.
    But I'd like to upgrade my RAM.  Guess I'll have to take a trip to the Apple store and buy from there--much more expensive though. 
    Anyone else have issues with RAM?

    Mac's are not tempermental with third party RAM however they are sensitive to the following RAM issues:
    1. Incorrect RAM specifications. RAM specs must exactly meet Apple's specifications, period! Installing incorrect RAM will cause KPs.
    2. Unseated RAM. Unseated RAM will cause problems.
    3. Failed RAM, this is more unusual however it's possible to have a RAM DIMM be defective of fail at a later date.
    The only third party RAM I would not recommend for your machine is Kingston Value brand, this has been troublesome. However if you use OWC or Crucial both are great vendors and sell RAM that works assuming 1, 2 and 3 above.
