8GB DDR3 1600 dual-channel kit

This G.SKILL kit provides 8 GB of DDR3 laptop memory in a matched pair of 4 GB modules. Rated at 1600 MHz with CL9 9-9-9-28 timings and 1.50 V operation, it installs in standard 204-pin SO-DIMM slots. The unbuffered, non-ECC design is built for everyday notebook upgrades.

Suits owners of DDR3 laptops with two free slots

Buyers whose notebooks have only a single memory slot cannot use the dual-channel pairing. Systems that require registered or ECC modules are also incompatible. The kit is not suitable for platforms that do not support 1.50 V DDR3 SO-DIMMs.

204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM form factor

The 204-pin SO-DIMM interface is the single specification that determines fit. If the laptop uses this slot type and accepts 1600 MHz DDR3 at 1.50 V, the modules will install and run at their rated CL9 timings.

Questions about this item

Will this 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM kit run at 1600 MHz alongside my existing DDR3 module?

The kit is rated at 1600 MHz CL9 1.50V. When mixed with slower DDR3, the system will typically run all modules at the lowest common speed and loosest timings.

How can I confirm the kit is running at its rated 1600 MHz CL9 after installation?

Open Task Manager or CPU-Z and check the memory tab; it should show 800 MHz (DDR3 1600) with timings 9-9-9-28 at 1.50V.

What is included in the box and is anything else required for installation?

The box contains two 4 GB 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM modules; no heat spreader, cables or tools are included and none are needed for a standard laptop slot.
