Avarum 8GB DDR3L 1600 SO-DIMM

This 8GB DDR3L module runs at 1600 MT/s with a CAS latency of 11. It uses the 204-pin SO-DIMM form factor and operates at 1.35V. The stick is unbuffered, non-ECC and organised as a dual-rank 2Rx8 device. It is built for laptops that accept DDR3L or DDR3 memory at this speed.

Suits laptops needing a single 8GB DDR3L upgrade

Buyers whose systems require ECC, registered DIMMs or a voltage other than 1.35V or 1.5V should look elsewhere. Machines that only support lower-density modules or a different pin layout will not accept this stick. The dual-rank 2Rx8 organisation may also be incompatible with some platforms that expect single-rank memory.

204-pin DDR3L SO-DIMM at 1.35V

The 204-pin DDR3L interface at 1.35V is the decisive specification. If the laptop’s memory slot and chipset call for this exact pin count and voltage, the module will fit and function. A different pin count or a strict 1.5V-only design means this part is not the right choice.

Questions about this item

What speed and bandwidth does the DDR3L 1600 (PC3L 12800) interface actually deliver?

The module runs at 1600 MT/s with a peak bandwidth of PC3L 12800, so the memory controller cannot exceed that transfer rate.

Will the 204-pin SO-DIMM fit my laptop’s memory slot and clearance?

It uses the standard 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM form factor; verify your laptop takes DDR3L SO-DIMMs and has room for a module of this height.

How do I install the module and which step do people often miss?

Power off, unplug, open the access panel, align the notch with the key, press firmly until the side clips click, then reapply power and confirm 8 GB appears in BIOS.
