Macbook pro 15" late 2011ram upgrade

Hello,
i have a macbook pro 15" late 2011 which came with 4gb ram and am thinking of upgrading with this
http://www.crucial.com/ProductDisplay?urlRequestType=Base&catalogId=10151&catego ryId=&productId=11645&urlLangId=-1&langI…
or this
http://www.corsair.com/en/corsair-mac-memory-16gb-dual-channel-ddr3-sodimm-memor y-kit-cmsa16gx3m2a1333c9
Has anyone tried these memories?
I think that crucial might fit better, but someone in their site complains about not being able to run ms word with crucial ram and that his machine is slower after upgrading.
Another issue is that crucial has 1,35V while i think mac has 1,5V.Would there be a problem?

I have 16 GB RAM from Crucial in my 17" 2011 MBP.  ZERO issues from the first day of installation, around 2+ years ago.  Crucial as well as OWC are the best sources for Mac compatible RAM,

Nonsense.  There must be other issues than RAM.
Another issue is that crucial has 1,35V while i think mac has 1,5V.Would there be a problem?
It is not an issue,  Ignore this specification.  Both voltages will run just fine.
Ciao.

  • Macbook pro 13 late 2011 upgrading ram 16gb 1600MHr?

    I want to upgrade my macbook ram. The ram I have in mind is: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0076W9Q5A/ref=gno_cart_title_2
    Is this ram compatible with my laptop?

    1) Buy from a Mac-centic Vendor. This rewards those who serve the Mac Community.
    2) Tell them your Mac and they will send you memory guaranteed to work or your money back. It costs them money to get it wrong.
    3) They will provide a lifetime warranty. If it ever fails, they will send you a replacemnt. You get modules that work today and for years to come.

  • Is it possible to upgrade a macbook pro 15 late 2008 memory upgrade to 8 go

    Hi from Belgium,
    Is it possible to upgrade a macbook pro 15 late 2008 memory from 4 to 8 go. And if yes would i have to replace both memory modules.
    I'm also experiencing problems with the battery. Could you tell me if the new replacement batteries are based on the new techonology (long lasting) or if the replacement battery will be the same as the original one.
    Thanks and have a good day.
    Francis

    Hi CMCSK and thanks.
    Maybe it's because of the SMC reset I've done.
    My computer wasn't responding to the power button when pressed and used to shut down unexpectedly so I did the SMC reset as per the procedure hereafter.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964?viewlocale=en_US
    So according to you, the battery seems to work properly and doesn't need to be replaced.
    Don't know if it's important but the figures I gave where the one with magsafe connected.
    In fact for the time beeing I only use my computer with magsafe plugged.
    I just unplugged the magpower and here are the new figures after 10 minutes.
    Charge Information:
      Charge Remaining (mAh):          3103
      Fully Charged:          No
      Charging:          No
      Full Charge Capacity (mAh):          3491
      Health Information:
      Cycle Count:          245
      Condition:          Normal
      Battery Installed:          Yes
      Amperage (mA):          -1431
      Voltage (mV):          11816
    Are these figures still ok ? Thanks for your help and have a good day.

  • I have upgraded my MacBook Pro 15 late 2011 to 8Gb RAM, now when I go to about this mac in it more info it doesn't show AMD graphics card as it used to before, it just show  Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB is that a problem that I need to worry about?

    and in system report >> hardware >> Graphics/Display >> it shows both grafics card listed.

    Some Mac's when the RAM is increased the Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics will bump itself up to the higher video RAM it takes, this seems to be what occured.
    It also means the dedicated graphics card will be used less, but only so slightly less.
    You obviously still should have both, you can test this by turning off Graphics Switching in Energy Saver, that will use the decicated AMD card all the time.
    You can also run Cinebench and compare the scores here

  • I bought my macbook pro in march 2007.  I am currently running osx 10.6.8, but want to upgrade to lion or mtn lion.  Apple website says i need a mid 2007 or later macbook pro, how do I tell if my Macbook pro will support this upgrade?

    The Mid-2007 model didn't come out until June 2007, so you must have bought an earlier model. It won't run Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8.x), but it might run Lion (10.7.x) if you can get hold of a copy, depending on which earlier model it is.
    Lion requires at least a Intel Core 2 Duo processor. The first MacBook Pros came out in January 2006, but they had "Core Duo" processors (no "2"). The Core 2 Duo MacBook Pros came out in October 2006. You could have bought either in March 2007.

  • I purchased my MacBook Pro in late 2007, just before Leopard was released.  I want to upgrade my memory and need to know if DDR2-667 SoDimm PC2-5300 is the correct type.

    I purchased my MacBook Pro in late 2007, just before Leopard was released.  I want to upgrade my memory and need to know if DDR2-667 SoDimm PC2-5300 is the correct type.

    If you have to wonder which RAM is the correct type, you probably aren't buying from a store that will give you the right RAM.  Many stores specify model and vintage of Mac on their website to ensure you get the right RAM.  Check my FAQ*:

  • What is the max memory allowed on a macbook pro 15" (late 2011), and what speed is the max speed allowed?

    Hello,
    I own a Macbook Pro 15" (late 2011) and I would like to upgrade the memory. I want to go with two 8gb sticks but if the motherboard only supports 8gb then I will have to stick with 8gb. Also, the ram that I have in currently, which is the 4gb that came with the mac, is 1333 Mz. Would I be able to upgrade to 1600 Mz on this laptop?

    Max is 16 GBs. Do not attempt to use memory with specs that differ from those required by your hardware.
    Maximum Memory
    16 GB (Actual) 8 GB (Apple)
    Memory Slots
    2 - 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM

    Slow performance after installing Yosemite on an older Mac is often caused by inadequate memory. Although you can install the upgrade on a Mac with 2 GB of memory, experience has shown that at least 4 GB is needed for full performance.
    Select About This Mac from the Apple menu. If you have less than 4 GB of memory, and your model has upgradable memory, install as much as it can take, or at least that much. Any reputable RAM vendor will have a web form in which you can select the Mac model and be directed to compatible parts.
    Memory in the MacBook Air is not upgradable. If that's what you have, you should restore the previous system from a backup, or replace the machine. Ask if you need guidance.
    The Etrecheck report clearly shows that SylvieRose has a Macbook Pro, not a Macbook Air and that there are only 2 GB  RAM installed.  The Etrecheck report can be very informative if one takes the time to examine it. 
    Ciao.

    I bought this computer with no disks, upgraded to Lion
    Replacement System Discs can be obtained from Apple's Customer Support - US (800) 767-2775 for a nominal fee. You'll need to have the model and serial number of your Mac available. 
    If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number - http://store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/intlstoreroutingpage.html

  • 1333Mhz Ram showing up as 1600Mhz MacBook Pro 15 Late 2011

    Hi All,
    I have a weird problem here.
    I have a late 2011 15inch Macbook Pro. I recently upgraded it to 1333MHZ 8GB (4X2) transcend RAM - (Transcend RAM Model JM1333KSH-4G)
    Now the problem is that the transcend RAM specifications show that these are 4GB 1333MHZ RAM but on installing in my Macbook Pro, it shows the frequency as 1600MHZ under "About Mac" menu. I have tried this with 4 different transcend RAMs to make sure that RAMs are ok. All the 4 RAMs show 1600 MHZ in my mac. Can this be a problem with my laptop?
    Apple support team suggested to reinstall the OS so that it updates with the correct information. I reinstalled the OS (not clean install, just reinstall), but still it shows 1600MHZ.
    Can somebody explain the problem to me? Is this normal ?
    Thanks in advance.
    Vikram

    Hi Dominic,
    Thanks for the reply.I really appreciate.
    This is one of the safest solution.I can return it but in our region Transcend is a trusted brand with acceptable service and repair. So, there are not too many reasons from moving away from the brand !!
    Further, i have tried with 4 different RAMs.All resulted in the same problem. My guess is that either the RAM model or my laptop is having problem.
    It would be great if some of our friends who have done a similar RAM upgrade with Late 2011 Macbook pro can share their experiences.
    Hopefully, i am not the only one to fall for transcend
    Thanks,
    Vikram

  • Maximum hdd size for MacBook Pro 17" (late 2006)

    I have macbook pro and looking to upgrade the base HDD of 160GB to maximum supported. I bought this in march 2007, so should be late 2006 model.
    Can someone share the knowledge, if they had upgraded to the bigger HDD? Also what capacity we can go as max?
    Thx

    The only limit you have is about 1TB - now about the largest drives that will fit in notebook computers. Do you really have the need for something so large, though. You could get a good price on a 500-750GB drive and that would increase your internal storage nicely. Your model and OS don't limit you to the size of the hard drive you can install.
