Dell Inspiron 531 memory upgrade

This kit provides 2 GB of DDR2 memory in two 1 GB DIMMs for Dell Inspiron 531 and 531S desktops. It uses PC2-5300 modules rated at 667 MHz with CL5 timings. The memory is unbuffered and non-ECC, matching the original specification for these systems.

Check your current configuration

The Inspiron 531 and 531S accept a maximum of 4 GB across four 240-pin slots. Confirm how many slots are already populated before ordering this 2 GB kit. Each module operates at 1.8 V and carries a 1Rx8 organisation with 64x8 chips.

Build quality and daily use

Modules are built with major-brand chips and carry a limited lifetime warranty from Computer Memory Solutions. No heat spreaders are fitted, so the low-profile DIMMs sit cleanly in standard desktop sockets. The 240-pin DDR2 interface ensures a secure, keyed connection that cannot be inserted incorrectly.
