imac compatability: Is this compatible with an iMAC 27" 2.7 GHz (2011) i5 Quad Core?

It absolutely is! I just received my order today, installed it and it works perfectly! Be sure to install in the same locations as the two memory cards you remove. As far as I can tell though it was money well spent.

Yeah I was just looking at that. Weird. All of the specs match exactly what my iMac mid 2011 says to put into it though.

Glenn Levy, you are INCORRECT. Unlike older iMacs, the RAM in Intel iMacs is a user installable part and does NOT void the warranty. I would recommend upgrading to at least 2 GB (1 GB is bare minimum these days). Anything you can do to reduce the amount of reading/writing to the hard drive will boost overall system performance.

I don't know as I don't have have that imac. If you look at the compatibility chart, your imac is not listed, so I would keep looking! Sorry

I'm sorry I answered "YES" to this question.This type of memory won't work on your iMac, you will need a PC3-8500/1066MHz/204 pin RAM modules

It works fine on my quad core early 2008 Mac Pro but I am running OSX 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).

Sorry Barbara. I can only tell you that it works great with my laptop & Windows operating system. Perhaps someone else can help with iMac information.

Hi Rich,Part number KTH-XW667/8G is intended for use in HP servers and is not compatible with your iMac. The 2007 model iMac supports a maximum of 4GB using two 2GB DDR2-667 SODIMMs. The compatible and recommended part number to max out the memory is KTA-MB667K2/4G. Find it here: Kingston 4 GB DDR2 SDRAM Memory Modules 4 GB (2 x 2 GB) 667MHz DDR2667/PC25400 DDR2 SDRAM 200pin KTA-MB667K2/4GThank you for choosing Kingston as your upgrade partner!-Jewel, Kingston US Technical Support

I believe it should work fine. I just researched it and it should work in your iMac 27 mid 2011. I used this memory in my Mac book pro early 2011. If it causes a problem you can return it.

I have an Apple iMac using 10.7.5 and a Macbook using 10.6 and works on both.

I believe I asked the same question when I upgraded, and I was told by Apple that, yes, it is compatible. However, I've not really used the programs since I upgraded. If you're on a MAC, I suggest you call Apple. I don't know who you'd call on a PC.

I use it for my MBP and it works great and was priced right. It shouldn't matter what MBP/ iMac you have.

Although I am not an expert on Macs, I checked over the specs for your computer and it looks like this RAM will work just fine in your iMac!

Mixing memory on iMacs is a gamble. The responses below are not specific enough as to which RAM they are using or combining? Hynix was original iMac and works in unison at 2X2 GB. The 4GB + 2GB combo is my issue also and I insist that the seller guarantee it will either work with other memory or NOT?

No it will not work. As the iMacs use SO-DIMMS which is laptop memory and this is desktop memory which doesn't fit
