Thanks for getting back to me Clinton from Birmingham!

I've already updated my 2011 17" with 2x8=16 gb 1333mhz sticks, so I have the original 2x4=8GB 1333mhz sticks laying around. Thats why I asked if they would work in the new base 15" model?


I got this reply over at the Serato Scratch Live forum:

"If I remember correctly, you absolutely can use the 1333 sticks in your new machine, you just can't MIX the two. So you can either use 1333 OR 1600, not both.


As far as a performance for Serato/etc, I don't think you'd notice much of a performance difference between the two speeds"
