SK hynix DDR4 8GB 3200MHz CL22 260-pin SODIMM laptop RAM

Capacity and form factor

This SK hynix module delivers 8 GB of DDR4 memory in a 260-pin SO-DIMM stick designed for laptop upgrade slots. It operates at 3200 MHz with a CL22 latency and runs on the standard 1.2 V supply for DDR4 SO-DIMM platforms. The unbuffered, non-ECC design matches the requirements of most consumer notebooks. No heat spreader is fitted, keeping the profile low for tight chassis clearances.

Suitable systems and limits

The single 8 GB stick suits owners adding memory to a free slot or replacing a failed module in a DDR4 SO-DIMM laptop. Buyers who need more than 8 GB total capacity should consider a multi-module kit or higher-density sticks. Systems that require ECC or registered memory cannot use this unbuffered module. Laptops limited to lower DDR4 speeds will run the module at the slower supported rate.

Deciding specification

The bus speed is rated PC4-25600 (DDR4-3200) with CL22 timing, and this is the figure that determines whether the module matches the laptop's memory controller specification. Check the manufacturer's qualified-vendor list or manual for DDR4-3200 CL22 support before ordering. If the platform only qualifies faster timings or a different voltage, this module may not operate at its rated speed.
