6 gigs ram?

No.

I was curious as to where exactly you got that information. On the page http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/apple/memory/iMac it boldly indicates 4 GB.

But then on http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/apple/memory/iMac/IntelCore_2Duo it indicates 6 GB is possible. I wonder if this just a case of misunderstanding or do they know something that we don't?

I'm sure it's not a hack. I have read on some web-sites about people who have tried to put 8GB RAM in their iMacs. Apparently, if the iMac tries to access above 6GB the system crashes. They then state that 6GB is the realistic maximum. Again, like the chap who claims to have put 4.5GB in his iSight G5, it is anecdotal.

If you have money to burn, be my guest with the 6GB. Don't forget to post the pictures as evidence here!

Can you point me in the direction of those posts regarding putting 6GB in an iMac, I really want to try this.

Does the fact that the new iMacs can support 8GB make it any easier to make the previous iMacs support more?

Thanks

Thanks, I can't see where it mentions a 3.06GHz, but I can conform that I bought a 4GB module from OWC and it is working great in my April 08 3.06GHz iMac with an existing 2GB giving me 6GB!
