Apple Mac DDR3 1600 SODIMM Kit

This 16 GB kit contains two 8 GB DDR3 1600 MHz SO-DIMM modules built for specific Apple computers. The unbuffered non-ECC 2Rx8 memory uses 204-pin form factor and PC3-12800 speed rating. It targets owners of compatible MacBook Pro, iMac or Mac mini models who want to increase installed memory.

Suits listed 2012 to 2015 Mac models

The kit matches MacBook Pro Mid 2012 (13 and 15 inch), iMac Late 2012 through Mid 2015 (21.5 and 27 inch including Retina 5K) and Mac mini Late 2012. Buyers whose Mac requires a different DDR generation, a different pin count, ECC registered modules or a higher speed grade cannot use this kit. Systems needing more than two slots or a capacity above 16 GB should look elsewhere.

204-pin DDR3 1600 non-ECC specification

The decisive parameter is the 204-pin DDR3 1600 MHz unbuffered non-ECC SO-DIMM interface with 2Rx8 organisation. Only machines that accept this exact combination of pin count, generation, speed and rank will recognise and run the modules at the rated PC3-12800 data rate.

Questions about this item

Will this 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM kit fit my MacBook Pro Mid 2012?

Yes. The kit matches the 204-pin DDR3 1600 MHz SO-DIMM specification required by MacBook Pro Mid 2012 models including 13-inch and 15-inch variants.

Can I mix these 8 GB dual-rank modules with the original 4 GB sticks in my iMac Late 2013?

The kit provides two 8 GB 2Rx8 modules for a total of 16 GB. Apple systems generally support mixed capacities, but for best stability use identical modules in each channel.

How do I verify the kit is running at 1600 MHz after installation?

Open About This Mac → System Report → Memory. Each slot should show 8 GB DDR3 at 1600 MHz with Part Number PC3-12800.
