G.SKILL 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) Memory for Apple Model FA-1333C9Q-32GSQ

Pros: Works flawlessly on Mid 2011 i7 3.4 ghz imac. Installed all 4 sticks at once, rebootted no problems. Renders video files like a champ. I'm glad I went for the 4 matched sticks instead of two sets of 2 x 8gb, there has not been 1 glitch since they day they went in.

Cons: none

Pros: Decent RAM, seemed to work pretty well speed wise. Not as fast as some others for sure, but it worked.
Good for the price.

Cons: One of my 4 sticks went bad on me within the first week. So I sent it back to G.Skill and they replaced it pretty quick.

Other Thoughts: At first I thought my iMac was broken, because nothing would boot (due to a bad stick of ram holding the motherboard hostage). I took it into a computer shop where they said it was just a stick of RAM that went bad.

Nonetheless, the company was friendly, and these things do happen. They did replace the RAM swiftly.

If you install this RAM and your computer freezes, crashes, and stops booting. Check your RAM, much trouble saved down the road.

Pros: Fast shipping! Works great! Easy Install on my 2011 iMAC 27" 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7. I now have 32GB of RAM!!! I see no issues yet. My home internet can't keep up...LOL. Don't be afraid to use G.Skill.

Cons: Couldn't track shipping very well, but gave enough info to know about when to expect it. Also, don't try installing all 4 8GB sticks at once. At least on my iMAC, it wouldn't boot up. However, after adding just (2) of the 8GB alongside the (2) 2GB that came with the computer it booted up. Then I allowed some time (hour or so) for computer to get used to new (2x8GBs). Afterwards, I removed the original (2x4GB) that came with computer and replaced with (2x8GB). Then computer booted up for a total of 32GB.

Other Thoughts: Some of my friends have mentioned not using G.Skill. For the price, I see no issues with using them and performance is the same!
