OWC 16GB DDR4 3200 SODIMM for Alienware M15 R5 R6

This OWC module delivers 16GB of DDR4 3200 memory built specifically for Alienware M15 R5 and R6 laptops. It targets owners of those models who need a straightforward capacity increase for heavier multitasking or larger workloads. The part is not suited for desktops, other laptop families, or systems that require ECC or registered memory.

JEDEC compliant 260-pin unbuffered layout

The stick follows JEDEC standard specifications and is ROHS compliant, ensuring a warranty-safe upgrade path. Its 260-pin SODIMM form factor slots directly into the Alienware M15 R5 or R6 without adapters, and the lack of a heat spreader keeps the profile thin for tight chassis clearances. Unbuffered, non-ECC operation matches the factory memory configuration exactly.

CL22 latency at 1.2V defines the upgrade fit

Running at CL22 CAS latency and 1.2V, this module matches the speed and voltage profile the Alienware M15 R5 and R6 expect. Mixing modules with different latencies or voltages can prevent the system from booting or force it to run at lower speeds, so this specification is the decisive factor for a stable, plug-and-play upgrade.
