Will 16Gb RAM be available in the 2011 MacBook Pro?

Question

macbook

I know that the specification indicates support for a maximum of 8 GB (2 4 GB sticks), but maybe someone had experience installing two 8 GB sticks in an early 2011 MacBook Pro? Will it work?
And please don't ask why I need so much :)

Answer 1

I installed a Corsair Value Select 2x8GB DDR3 PC3-10600 KIT (CMSO16GX3M2A1333C9) for $77 in my MacBook Pro at the end of 2011 without any problems at all, 17 tabs with a video in youtube, in three browsers, and a few more just tabs, 2 movies in HD quality in different players, IDE, Navicat Premium, Photospho (site design), toy, iTunes, and a few more programs. It took 8GB of memory, and the processor is 12% busy. An excellent upgrade turned out, before that there were 4 and two browsers with 20 tabs with regular pages, IDE and Navicat Premium, and braking was already felt. Now it responds with lightning speed, no matter what I do.

Answer 2

16Gb will work. We didn't try OWC memory sticks, but they launched them on Samsung sticks.
But on the ELPIDA slats - no.

Answer 3

Judging by the fact that MacSales sell 16GB Memory Kit for Early'2011 , it will work.

Answer 4

Isn't it possible to find identical dice to the desired ones in an "offline" store (if you intend to eventually buy via the Internet), come with a laptop and try it on the spot?

Answer 5

here is 16 gigabytes of memory for 300 dollars, if you are not afraid of delivery from the states of hiss or some other service

Answer 6

So I ask - why is 16 better than 8? I also want to add memory, so I think I can take 16 at once?

Answer 7

Did the video work better with 16GB?

Answer 8

I took off the old bars - looked at the timings, bought them with the same timings, but of a larger volume, sold the old ones. Everything works perfectly. I even set not 1333, but 1600 and it started up, although the manual says that it will not start ... In general, marketing ....
