Compatible upgrade for Alienware X17 R1

This 16GB DDR4 SODIMM is built specifically for the Alienware X17 R1 laptop. It arrives as a single 260-pin module that meets JEDEC and ROHS standards for a warranty-safe installation. The unbuffered, non-ECC design matches the factory memory specification for this system.

Steady multitasking headroom

The module runs at 3200MHz with CL22 timings and 1.2V operation, delivering consistent throughput during extended workloads. Dual-rank 2Rx8 organisation helps sustain bandwidth when multiple applications or large files are open simultaneously. JEDEC compliance ensures stable behaviour without relying on overclocking profiles.

16GB capacity in a single slot

One 16GB stick fills a single SODIMM slot, leaving any remaining slots free for future expansion. Buyers who need more than 16GB total should verify how many slots their specific X17 R1 configuration provides before ordering.

Questions about this item

Does the 1.2 V DDR4 module run hot or draw much power when the Alienware X17 R1 is under load all day?

The SODIMM operates at the standard 1.2 V JEDEC voltage with no heat spreader, so it adds minimal heat and power draw during sustained use.

What must the laptop already have for this 260-pin CL22 stick to work?

The Alienware X17 R1 needs a free DDR4 SODIMM slot and a BIOS that supports 3200 MHz PC4-25600 memory.

Will this 16 GB 3200 MHz module work alongside the original RAM already in my X17 R1?

Yes, provided the existing memory is also DDR4 3200 MHz CL22 1.2 V unbuffered non-ECC; matching specs ensures stable dual-channel operation.
