16GB DDR5 SODIMM running at 4800MHz with CL40 latency and 1.1V operation for laptop upgrades
This 16GB DDR5 SODIMM module operates at 4800MHz with CL40 latency and 1.1V voltage. The 2Rx8 unbuffered design uses a 288-pin layout for compatible notebook platforms. A single module fills one slot and runs at the slowest speed of any installed memory or the processor limit. A 64-bit operating system is required to address the full capacity.
Ideal for owners of laptops or compact systems that accept 288-pin DDR5 SODIMMs and need a 16GB non-ECC upgrade. Not suited for machines that only accept full-size DIMMs, for builds requiring ECC or registered memory, or for users who must populate every slot with matched pairs from the same production lot. Mixing modules is possible but will reduce all memory to the lowest common speed.
The 40-40-40-96 timing at 4800MHz determines whether this module matches the platform's supported JEDEC profile. If the system firmware expects a different latency set or a higher data rate, the memory will downclock to the lowest common denominator. Verify the platform's qualified vendor list for this exact timing before purchase.

The module operates at 1.1V, the standard DDR5 voltage, which keeps power draw low during continuous operation; exact wattage depends on the laptop's memory controller and workload.
A DDR5 SODIMM slot, a 64-bit operating system, and a CPU or chipset that supports 4800MHz DDR5 at 1.1V; the system will run at the slowest installed module's speed.
Yes, all memory runs at the slowest installed module's speed and timings, so mixing with slower DDR5 reduces overall performance to that lower level.
