When you buy a new iMac from Apple, it can be costly to upgrade the RAM. Upgrading a new iMac from 8GB of RAM to 32GB, for example, will cost you an extra $600 through Apple's website. There is a much more wallet-friendly way to add RAM to an iMac, however: do it yourself. Third-party sites such as Other World Computing and Crucial sell the same amount of RAM for around $150. That's a savings of $450. All you need to do is install it, which Apple has made relatively easy. In this video we walk you step by step through the installation process. For a more in-depth look at the buying and installation process, check out this article on CNET: https://cnet.co/2SSl3r0 Even if you aren't buying a new iMac, upgrading the RAM on your old computer is a quick and affordable way to give your computer more multitasking juice to handle all of those open tabs in your Chrome browser.
