If your iMac is a 2020 model (they came out at the beginning of August, however ALWAYS check About this Mac to verify the model year, this is located under the symbol in the upper left of the display.


Most experienced users on these forums recommend both Crucial.com or Macsales.com RAM. I have a 27" 2020 model and below is the OWC RAM I installed. Be careful if you have a 2020 model and look at which slots I have the RAM installed in and the speed. If you do not follow what I have you will not get the best speed.

Thanks; I used to have an article (can't find it any longer) where Apple showed the OEM installed in slots 1 + 3 in the vertical arrangement to "match"; in the even older ones, the match was horizontal. Throughout those slot arrangement changes, they never once adjusted the way the slots are displayed in the "about this mac", so it is difficult to figure out which pairs are matched.
