  64GB DDR4 memory for the new iMac 27″

  Posted by Michiel De leeuw van weenen on June 6, 2017 at 5:34 pm

  I just ordered the new iMac 27″.
  As always I will try to buy the memory somewhere else.

  This is the official description from Apple: DDR4 2400 MHz SODIMM (PC4-2400) (compatible with 27‑inch iMac (medio 2017).

  What are the current best manufacturers to buy from?
  I found this: HyperX 64 GB DDR4-2400 Quad-Kit, (4 x 16gb). HyperX modules are from Kingston.
  (price is around € 579,-)

  Any thoughts?

  Just curious, which processor did you choose and why? I have had good luck buy memory from OWC.

  Which processor? I did all options on max. 4,2GHzI7 up to 4,5. 2TB flash HD, Radeon pro 580 8g VRAM.
  Why: You can’t replace items after you buy. I like speed very much. I can sell my old iMac. I had a lot of good clients last half year.
  The whole configuration is (without tax) around € 4.000,- (without memory what cost me seperate € 600,- for 64GB).
