2020 iMac 27" RAM Upgrade Question. Are all "2666Mhz" RAMs automatically "PC4-21333"

I'm a new iMac owner (and it's also my first computer that I bought for myself) and have minimal experience in upgrade parts. So I'm confused if there might be incompatibility issues with "2666MHz" rams?


This DDR4 - 2666Mhz ram has a label PC4-2666V so I wonder if that is incompatible? or all SO-DIMM DDR4 - 2666Mhz rams (260-pin) are automatically compatible with the last intel iMac?


This is the most "compatible" RAM I've seen in my country's online stores that also fits my budget, and I just worry that it might be incompatible or not optimized for my 2020 iMac.


Thanks in advance

You can refer to the chart below, in terms of terminology.

DDR4 2666 has the Bus bandwidth of 21333 (mb/s).

The dices are in your hand if you plan to purchase memory modules of your choice.


And NO, all memory modules are not created equally --> not all compatible with Macs.
