I had already upgraded my iMac to 24 GB memory last year or so. Don’t know why I don’t go a head and do 32GB. I brought 2 of these to match the other two. Easy install and is running find. Everything is good so far.

I installed the new RAM as soon as I got and it was easy to install and my computer is so fast I can’t see it change from window to window. It’s as if it’s faster than the eye can detect. Now if it’s reliable, I’m a happy camper.

two different sets of this memory did not work on my late oct 2015 Imac 27 retina 5K, purchased new in July 2016 The first set crashed very often and Failed Memtest memory testing software tests the second set passed rember tests, but still triggered kernel panics a few minutes after reboot My Imac is very stable with the original 8Gb from apple I purchased a 64 GB memory kit from Crucial, and so far, I have not had any kernel Panics in 3 days running non stop, So I do not believe my computer or the 64 Gb configuration may be at fault. there may be something wrong with this batch. OWC is a great company and I have had no issue with their products up until now. One thing I noticed is that the memory boards appeared to require less force to insert than the apple or Crucial ones.

Bought the Late 2015 Imac with 16gb memory installed. Upgraded with 2 more 8 gbs for a total of 32. I cant tell the difference in speed with the extra memory. In some instances I feel like it actually runs slower. I use LR and PS non stop daily.

Product packaging leaves a bit to be desired, but otherwise it was easy to install and my iMac recognized it right away, no problems.

I have had OWC send me multiple 16gb dimm replacements, but the result is always the same, unstable machine. How can OWC and B&H photo sell these to the professional crowd who demand stability? Stick with 8gb dimm’s per slot and you should be good

This 32 GB of memory kit was for my brand new IMAC 27 Retina computer which came with onlyi 8 GB of memory. The cost of 32 GB from Apple was considerably higher than OWC. Installed the 4 chips in less than 2 minutes. The IMAC instantly recognized the new memory and is working perfectly.

I replaced the two 4G Dimm in my 2015 iMac. It was easy and the memory upgrade has made a difference.

i This was the easiest memory upgrade I’ve ever done! And effective – Lightroom now works as fast as I do!

Unfortunately Adobe Lightroom & Photomatix keeps crashing when blending HDR photos. Something seems to be wrong with this RAM. I’ve had my computer completely crash and shut down by itself too. Returning and exchanging for a new one in hopes I just got bad ones.

These worked good until one stick went bad. They were replaced and all is well.
Cade Stoltenberg (verified owner) –
using it to add memory for iMAC, it’s good and comparable. Thanks!

Installed very easily, clicking perfectly into all four slots of my wife’s late 2015 5K iMac. Booted up and worked perfectly, and continues to do so daily after almost a month.

This product was super easy to install and only took about 2 minutes total. Once the computer is rebooted, there is no need to do anything. It just works. Performance has improved greatly, especially using Lightroom. 10/10 would recommend.

Crashes in less than 1 minute running BMD Disk Speed Test on SSD JBOD. Tried different DIMM configs, including falling back to 2x16G DIMMs to stay within Apple advertised 32GB memory limit, and this smaller config also panics iMac and causes a hard reboot. Seems like there must be a design problem with these DIMMs, not simply one-off manufacturing defects. Really wanted this config to work, but it really doesn’t. Avoid these until OWC gets problems sorted out.
