Can i use pc3-10600 with pc3-8500 on my imac end 2009??

actually i have a Imac end 2009 with 4Gb DDR3 PC3-8500 1067MHz


I need more ram but i found 4Gb DDR3 PC3-10600 1333MHz... My question is if i put the 4Gb PC3-10600 with my 4Gb PC3-8500 my imac will work properly?


I suppose the memory 1333MHz will probably work at 1067MHz.. Or i need to change all the Ram for a new one?



Thanks!!

Not the best idea to mix memory and I doubt you will see anything significant if it works at all. If the machine is in good order buy the matching memory. Contact Crucial.com, where you can discuss your needs and buy the appropriate memory at a fair price. This is the UK connection but you will be offered the French site.
