Computer Memory Solutions CM10246412800SODRL 8GB DDR3L 1600MHz SODIMM for HP Compaq 250 G3 memory upgrade

HP 250 G3 memory upgrade

This 8 GB DDR3L SODIMM is built specifically for the HP Compaq 250 G3 notebooks equipped with Core i3 or Core i5 processors. It arrives as a single unbuffered, non-ECC module rated at 1600 MHz with a CAS latency of 11. The 1.35 V operating voltage matches the DDR3L standard used by these systems. Installing it is a straightforward way to increase available memory for everyday workloads.

DDR3L platform limits

The HP 250 G3 platform accepts a maximum of 16 GB across its two SODIMM slots, so this 8 GB stick can fill one slot or be paired with an identical module to reach the ceiling. DDR3L memory runs at 1.35 V and is keyed differently from standard 1.5 V DDR3, preventing accidental insertion into incompatible sockets. The 204-pin form factor and PC3L-12800 rating are fixed by the notebook's memory controller. Builders needing higher speeds, ECC error correction, or registered buffering must choose a different platform.

8 GB single-module capacity

Capacity is the decisive specification: this kit delivers exactly 8 GB in one 2Rx8 rank module. If the notebook currently has a single 4 GB stick, adding this module brings the total to 12 GB; if both slots are empty, two of these modules reach the 16 GB maximum. Buyers who need more than 16 GB total memory or who want a factory-matched dual-channel kit should look at platforms that support larger SODIMM densities.
