Unfortunately, no one seems to have confirmed that 32GB will work. I have never seen Apple be so comprehensive about their specs! Though they still won't report higher actual RAM maximums on known working configurations. The other websites I hadn't tried, and the Apple Specs website was impressive. They even sometimes provide links to some articles regarding any prior confusion (such as 6GB or 8GB in the Unibody MacBooks? It was finally discovered that Apple quietly released an unrelated FirmWare update that allowed those MacBooks to work fine with 8GB of RAM) It's usually the first to report a new maximum. It has been a great source for actual maximum memory. Thanks for the links! is one of my favorite websites. So I'm aware how much 32GB is, and that I could use it! So please, no comments about: Why or How could you use/need 32GB of memory! ) And I easily use over 12GB of RAM continuously everyday, I just hate it when I start to use Swap memory, the HDD for virtual memory. (Also, the cost of these 8GB SO-DIMMs have come down to lower than the 4GB SO-DIMMs that I bought 2 years ago to bring it up to 16 GB. (Such as audio through the Mini-DisplayPort and handling of the SDXC SD Cards does work on the late 2009 iMac as well, possibly through a firmware update since 2010?)Īnyone with knowledge of the memory controllers or experience with this specifically, any comments would be greatly appreciated! I have found that many of the things that were thought to be new with the 2010 models also work with the late 2009 models. I was wondering if anyone has tried 32 GB of RAM in that model? (or even 2x8GB or 20GB/24GB/28GB combinations) I have the late 2009 27" iMac with the Quad Core i7-860 at 2.8GHz. I have read that the 2010 and later 27" iMac models can support 32GB of RAM with the new 8GB DDR3 SO-DIMMs.
