32 GB DDR4 kit for 27-inch iMac 5K Mid-2017
This 32 GB kit contains two 16 GB DDR4 2400 SO-DIMM modules built to the exact specification Apple used in the 27-inch 5K iMac released in mid-2017. It is intended for owners of that model who want to reach the machine's 64 GB ceiling without mixing module sizes.
Thermals noise and power draw
Each stick runs at the standard 1.2 V DDR4 voltage and carries no heat spreader, so the modules rely on the iMac's existing airflow. The unbuffered, non-ECC design adds no active components, meaning power draw and acoustic profile remain identical to the factory-installed memory.
What the bundle changes
The package supplies a matched pair of 16 GB sticks, letting you populate two of the four slots in a single step and leave the other two free for a future upgrade to 64 GB. Computer Memory Solutions validates every module against the target iMac and backs the kit with a limited lifetime warranty when purchased directly.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 260-pin DDR4 SO-DIMM modules in the 27-inch 5K iMac (Mid-2017) and which step is often missed?
Power off and unplug the iMac, lay it face-down on a soft cloth, press the button under the power port to open the memory door, eject any existing modules by pulling the side levers outward, align each 260-pin stick's notch with the slot key, press firmly until the levers click back, then close the door before reconnecting power.
What maintenance or replacement will the 32 GB (2×16 GB) DDR4 2400 CL17 kit need over time?
No routine maintenance is required; the unbuffered non-ECC modules have no moving parts or batteries. If a stick ever fails, the limited lifetime warranty from Computer Memory Solutions covers repair or exchange for the original purchaser.
What limit appears first during sustained heavy workloads with this 1.2 V 2Rx8 DDR4 2400 memory?
The memory controller in the 4.2 GHz Core i7 iMac caps usable speed at 2400 MT/s, so bandwidth tops out at the PC4-19200 rating; thermals stay within spec because the SODIMMs run at standard 1.2 V without a heat spreader.
