14 DAY TRIAL // Apple might outfit its MacBook Pro and Mac Mini machines with enough RAM to have things run well and smooth, but some situations could do with more, like the capacities OWC now offers.
OWC has been making memory products for Mac systems for quite a bit of time already, so it is no shock to learn it made a new release of this type.
The detail of the new release that might take people by surprise is the sheer variety of capacity options, as well as the price advantages of the MaxRAM, as the line are called.
The one kit that tops them all is the one with a total capacity of 32 GB, composed of four 8 GB modules.
Users will need to be willing to pay the sum of $1,848, not an easily approachable number to be sure, although whoever has an iMac has a fair chance to afford it.
Then again, if one does look for affordability, they need look no further than the 8GB kit (two 4 GB modules), which can let one save up to 70% over what Apple's factory-installed options demand. More specifically, customers will have to pay $72.
One step higher on the capacity scale is a 12 GB kit, composed of one 8 GB and one 4 GB module and priced at $500. The 16GB kit takes things another step further, demanding $929.
The final kit one may get a hold of, and which is composed of four modules (two 8 GB and two 4 GB), is the 24 GB MaxRAM. It can be bought for $1,000.
Prospective buyers that want to have a clear-cut picture about which of the above goes where will be interested in knowing that only the two top-most offers are fit for iMac i5 and i7 machines.
The others will serve MacBook pro and Mac mini, since these electronics have only two memory slots so they can't house the other ones.
