Well, there’s been a roller coaster of activity here in the OWC Labs already this week and its only Tuesday!
Other World Computing, through our in-house laboratory ‘MaxRAM’ Certified testing program, is proud to release today the first available third party 32GB 1066MHz DDR3 ECC memory upgrade for 2009 Mac Pro Quad-Core Pro models, including the newest 3.33GHz model announced by Apple earlier this month. With this announcement, OWC memory upgrades offer all Mac Pro users up to double the original factory memory with kits of up to 32GB for all Mac Pro Dual-Core, Quad-Core, and 8-Core Models.
What does that mean with the marketing text stripped out? Simply that if you have a Quad-Core Mac Pro – you can install as much memory as their big brothers, the 8-Core models…all supported by the memory experts you’ve come to know and trust.
The Quad-Core Mac Pro ‘Nehalem’ models have four memory slots. Installing four of our new 8GB memory modules allows these machines to max out at 32GB of memory.
As you should all know our mantra of more memory means better performance and then couple it with Snow Leopard, things really get cooking, since all 64-bit apps are now able to utilize more than 4GB of memory. Article Continues…
