Chip Supplier Ramjet Confirms 6GB Support for New Macbooks

Share      

Chip supplier Ramjet has tested and officially confirmed that the new Macbok and Macbook Pros can support 6GB RAM via one 2GB module and one 4GB module. The systems have been shown to be unsupportive of 8GB of RAM, however. Attempting 8GB, according to Ramjet, has been rendering the OS unusable.

Ramjet recommends you obtain the 6GB by utilizing a new 4GB 1066 SO-DIMM paired with a 2GB. A company representative says the performance gained by having the extra two gigs more than negates the loss that comes from having an unmatched pair. The 4GB/2GB combo will set you back around $675.
