So in this video, I'm gonna show you how to upgrade your memory on your 17 2027 inch I'm at and save more than $900 doing it.

So we're not doing our regular vlog today because I just got something pretty cool in the mail.

I got the 17 2027 inch iMac, fully Specht.

And as intel I 74.2 gigahertz quad core processor, it comes with the radio on 5 80 graphics cards with eight gigabytes of memory.

Now, one thing I didn't get is the memory upgrade.

What I did was actually got the base eight gigs.

The reason I did that is, if you try to purchase it directly from the Mac store, you have to pay an extra 1000 of $400.

But I'm gonna show you guys today how you could do it for a lesson.

$500 which is like more than half the price.

What we're gonna do is I'm gonna show you how to install the memory so you guys don't have to pay the full price for your I'm AC memory upgrade.

The first thing you're gonna want to do is unplugged the power cable from the back of the eye.

You're going to need to press this down to pop open the memory latch just above it.

In our case, I used a chopstick to pop it open.

If you're like me, you'll have to four gigabyte cards preinstalled.

To remove the cards, you'll need to spread open the side arms just like this.

Gently pull up the four gigabyte memory cards one by one.

Now we're going to replace the memory cards with 4 16 gigabyte cards.

This will give us a total of 64 gigabytes of DVR for memory.

I'll leave a link in the description below, in case you want to get Theseus.

If it memory cards as they have been tested, be careful.

Gently insert each 16 gigabyte memory card.

For me to make the insulation a bit simpler, push the memory all the way down.

You'll hear a little snap when it gets seated properly.

When you're done, push the memory trade back down and make sure that trey arms lock into place, replace the memory latch and finally reconnect the power cable.

Turn the PC on and go to the about this Max Green.

You'll see the 4 16 gigabytes of DDR four memory and sold for a total of 64 gigabytes, all less than $500.

The reason I got this new iMac is because I was editing all their videos on a 2016 Mac book.

But it started slow down when we started doing a lot of like four K video as a follow up, I'm gonna actually do a comparison of the 2016 13 inch MacBook Pro with the 2000 and 17 27 inch I'm at Foley Square.
