Can the RAM be increased to over 4GB?
Can the 2 GB / PC2-6400 800MHz chips be replaced by a higher memory chip?

Yes, it can be done. I own an i-mac intel 20" 2210, and
I have managed to increase the RAM to 8 GB using two 4GB modules
manufactured by Patriot (Patriot Signature Series) part# psd24g8002s.
I am not sure if other modules by other manufacturers would work the
same.
It depends--according to Mactracker a 2007 will take 4--a 2008 will take 6 and a 2009 will take 8. A 2006 model is limited to 2GB. Ralph
Thanks for the responses. The August Macworld lists the "actual" upgrade for any EMC 2210 as being 6 GB, though I have found no lead to confirm this, or to obtain such a chip. Since my model is a 2007 iMac, I may be out of luck. IAC, tomorrow, I'll call Patriot and see what they have to say. Aguaybana—Do you know if your iMac is actually able to use all 8 GB?
