Compatible 16GB DDR4 SODIMM kit

This 16GB kit contains two 8GB DDR4 2400 SODIMM modules built for Alienware 17 R3 and R4 notebooks. Each stick runs at 1.2V with CL17 timings and uses a 260-pin unbuffered non-ECC design. The matched pair is intended to run in dual-channel mode on the supported platforms.

Verify slot count and OS before ordering

The target laptops provide two memory sockets with a maximum capacity of 32GB, so this kit fills both slots. A 64-bit operating system is required to address more than 4GB of memory. Mixing these modules with existing sticks will force all memory to run at the slowest installed speed.

Steady throughput at rated voltage

Under sustained load the modules operate continuously at 2400MHz and 1.2V without a heat spreader. The CL17 17-17-17 timing remains stable during extended workloads because the unbuffered design relies on the system cooling rather than additional thermal hardware.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and does anything else need to be purchased?

The box contains two 8 GB DDR4 260-pin SODIMM modules for a total of 16 GB. No extra parts are required for installation in a compatible Alienware 17 R3 or R4.

How do I decide between the available capacities for this upgrade?

This kit provides 16 GB in a matched pair. The supported laptops accept up to 32 GB across two slots, so adding another identical kit later would reach the maximum.

What does the DDR4-2400 CL17 rating mean once the memory is installed?

The modules will run at 2400 MHz with 17-17-17 timings at 1.2 V. If mixed with slower memory, the system will operate at the lowest installed speed.
