My issue is that after narrowing it down to a few options, I read the customer reviews for the models and found that a lot of people were complaining that when they put 2x4GB sticks into their Macbook Pro i7, it would cause flickering and screen tearing issues when the Intel GPU is initialized. I found the cheapest set I could get for 2x4GB was just above $200. With my old Macbook I upgraded using Corsair "Apple ready" RAM for the sake of eliminating any possible compatibility issues with latency or frequencies, and because it was relatively cheap.īut now, it looks like 4GB sticks of RAM are still some novelty item, because they're still priced pretty high. I've been looking around a lot and I found some from vendors like G-Skill, Mushkin, OWC, Crucial, and Corsair. ![]() Hi all, I'm looking into possibly upgrading my RAM for my mid-2010 15" Macbook Pro i7 from 4GB to 8GB.
