Is Pc3-8500 RAM compatible with an Early 2011 MacBook Pro
I purchased an 8GB RAM upgrade kit from Corsair. Their website says it’s compatible with the Early 2011 MacBook Pro and it even says it on the box
However, the modules I removed are PC3–10600.
Apple’s website and even Kappy said on this forum that this model takes PC3–10600, but the computer still boots up.
How is this possible and did I just downgrade my laptop and make it slower? Why does it say 1067 MHz, when the box says the RAM is 1066 MHz?
