Ready for HP Pavilion Dv7 upgrades

This 16 GB kit contains two 8 GB DDR3L SODIMM modules built for the HP Pavilion Dv7-6178Us, Dv7-6B32Us and Dv7-6B37Ez notebooks. Each stick uses a 204-pin layout and runs at 1.35 V. The kit is sold new and intended for owners of those specific models who need a matched pair.

DDR3L 1600 CL11 limits in practice

The memory operates at 1600 MHz with CL11 11-11-11 timings and is unbuffered non-ECC. A 64-bit operating system is required to address the full 16 GB; on a 32-bit OS the usable amount may drop to 3.5 GB or less. Modules must be installed in pairs to enable dual-channel mode.

Plain sticks, paired install, lifetime cover

No heat spreader is fitted, so the modules sit low under standard notebook covers. The 2Rx8 organisation and major-brand chipset keep the electrical profile steady. Computer Memory Solutions backs the kit with a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects when purchased directly, and guarantees compatibility with the listed HP models.

Questions about this item

Should I buy this 16GB kit as two 8GB modules or look for a single 16GB stick?

The kit is supplied as a matched pair of 8GB modules. The manufacturer states modules must be ordered and installed in pairs for dual-channel operation, so this 2x8GB configuration is the correct choice for the listed HP Pavilion models.

What does the 1600MHz speed rating actually deliver inside my HP Pavilion dv7-6178us?

The modules run at DDR3L 1600 (PC3L 12800) with CL11 11-11-11 timing at 1.35V. In the compatible HP Pavilion notebooks they will operate at the full 1600MHz data rate in dual-channel mode, providing the maximum memory bandwidth those platforms support.

Is the 204-pin DDR3L SO-DIMM interface the limiting factor for capacity on these laptops?

Yes. The 204-pin DDR3L SO-DIMM form factor and the platform's two memory sockets cap the total at 16GB (2x8GB). A 64-bit operating system is required to address the full amount; with a 32-bit OS the recognised memory may be reduced to 3.5GB or less.
