Other World Computing (OWC), a leading Mac and PC technology company and leading after-market supplier of memory upgrades for the Mac Pro, today announced its new “Quick Install” Guide for OWC Memory Upgrade Kits for the latest Mac Pro 8-Core Xeon models for the fastest, easiest installation a user can do on their own. Priced as low as $48.75 per GB, OWC memory upgrades offer a savings of well over 70% as compared to factory-installed and other competitors.
There are some slight changes to the memory riser configuration vs. the prior model, so users need to plan for a slightly different memory installation procedure. To simplify the process, OWC has created both a standard “Quick Install” Guide included with every Mac Pro 800MHz Memory set shipped and an online video installation guide to show just how easy it is to install. As OWC’s guide and online video affirms (see http://eshop.macsales.com/how_to_install/Apple/Mac_Pro_Memory_800Mhz_2008 for video), Mac Pro memory is an easily user installable upgrade.
OWC (FB-DIMM) 800MHz DDR2 72-Bit ECC fully-buffered Memory Upgrade Modules are available in matched sets of 1.0GB, 2.0GB, and 4.0GB modules for up to 32.0GB of total memory (see full pricing info below).
OWC Memory Module New Pricing:
2.0GB Matched Sets (1.0GB Module x 2) for as low as $60.00/GB
4.0GB Matched Sets (2.0GB Module x 2) for as low as $48.75/GB
8.0GB Matched Sets (4.0GB Module x 2) for as low as $85.94/GB
OWC has been providing memory to upgrade Apple computers for nearly 20 years. In August of 2006, OWC was the first to provide true Apple-Qualified memory for the first Apple Mac Pro Quad Xeon computers at independent prices and now without delay, has the new 800MHz memory available for these most recent Apple Mac Pro 8-Core Xeon models. OWC Memory Upgrade Kits provide premium quality, fully-tested modules that completely meet and/or exceed all Apple specifications. Utilizing superior components, including true Apple-Qualified heat spreaders, the modules provide a lifetime of high-performance, reliable operation backed by OWC’s Lifetime Advance Replacement Warranty.
Cash Back Trade-In Rebate
A cash-back rebate of up to $55 per set is also available from OWC for the trade-in of Apple factory memory. Available for immediate order, the OWC Memory Upgrade Kits consist of matched pairs of FB-DIMM modules manufactured to Apple’s stringent Mac Pro specifications, far exceeding JEDEC (the leading developer of solid-state industry standards) specifications.
