Cheap MacBook Memory

The easiest way to boost your MacBook's performance is to install more memory. Whichever MacBook model you own, unless you've maxed out the RAM, it's not running as well as it should. Mac OS X needs plenty of memory and Apple has a habit of supplying Macs with j-u-s-t enough RAM to run OK. Trouble is, as soon as you open up Photoshop or one of the bigger apps, things start running slower. Happily, RAM is a lot cheaper than it used to be and these days there's no excuse for having too little RAM.

So what sort of RAM modules does your MacBook need?

Easy! All MacBooks use the same RAM module, the 200 pin PC2-5300 667MHz DDR2 SO-DIMM

How much RAM will your MacBook take?

The MacBook Air takes 2 x 1 GB to a max of 2 GB. Early 13" MacBook models could only support 2 GB of memory but late-2006 MacBooks could address 3GB if 2 x 2GB modules were installed (although Apple specs said not) and late-2007 MacBooks can address the full 4GB.

Early MacBook Pro 15"s and 17"s were maxed out at 2 GB but the first Core 2 Duo models could address 3 GB if 2 x 2GB modules were installed and the mid/late 2007 models can address the full 4GB. If you're unsure which model MacBook you have, check with Apple.
