Targeted Upgrade
This 8GB kit supplies two 4GB DDR3 SO-DIMMs built for the 21.5-inch iMac with a 2.5 GHz Core i5 from Mid-2011. The modules match the factory PC3-10600 specification and 204-pin form factor. Owners of that exact model can install both sticks to reach the system's supported capacity.
Steady Operation
Rated at 1333 MHz with CL7 timings, the memory maintains its rated speed during extended workloads without downclocking. Unbuffered, non-ECC chips and 1.5V operation keep latency consistent across long rendering or virtualisation sessions. The 2Rx8 organisation supports the platform's dual-channel architecture throughout sustained use.
Thermal Profile
Without a heat spreader, the modules rely on the iMac's internal airflow to stay within safe limits. Standard DDR3 power draw at 1.5V produces modest heat that the stock cooling handles quietly. No additional fan noise or temperature spikes appear during typical desktop and creative workloads.

Spørgsmål om denne vare
Does the 1.5 V DDR3-1333 kit run noticeably hotter or louder than the original modules during long sessions?
The modules have no heat spreader and draw standard 1.5 V DDR3 power, so they add minimal heat and produce no noise of their own.
My Mid-2011 iMac currently has two 2 GB sticks — do I need to remove them before installing this 2×4 GB kit?
Yes, the iMac has four SO-DIMM slots and supports up to 32 GB; you can keep the existing sticks if free slots remain, but replacing them gives a cleaner 8 GB total.
Will these CL7 204-pin SO-DIMMs work reliably alongside the original 1333 MHz memory already in my iMac?
They match the factory DDR3-1333 speed and 204-pin form factor, so the system will run all populated slots at the common 1333 MHz rate without timing conflicts.
