16GB DDR3 1600 Dual-Channel Kit

This OWC kit provides 16GB of DDR3 laptop memory in two matched 8GB modules running at 1600MHz with CL11 latency. The 204-pin SO-DIMM form factor fits standard laptop, all-in-one and NAS slots. Modules operate at 1.5V and are unbuffered non-ECC.

Suits DDR3 Systems Needing 16GB

Ideal for upgrading compatible laptops, mini PCs or NAS units that accept DDR3 1600 SO-DIMMs and benefit from dual-channel bandwidth. Not suitable for systems that require registered or ECC modules, or for platforms limited to 8GB maximum capacity per slot.

DDR3 1600MHz Speed Rating

The decisive specification is the PC3-12800 1600MHz speed grade. Your device must support DDR3 at this frequency to run the kit at its rated performance. Verify the motherboard or system documentation for DDR3 1600 compatibility before purchase.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the DDR3 1600 PC3-12800 interface deliver in practice?

The DDR3 1600 PC3-12800 interface delivers up to 12,800 MB/s of peak bandwidth per module, limited by the memory controller and system bus.

What physical slot and form factor does the 204-pin SODIMM kit require?

Each 8 GB module uses a 204-pin SO-DIMM edge connector and fits standard laptop, mini PC and NAS SO-DIMM sockets without a heat spreader.

How is the dual-channel kit installed, and what step do people often miss?

Power off the device, open the memory compartment, insert both modules at the same angle until the clips lock, then verify the full 16 GB appears in BIOS.
