8 GB DDR3-1066 SODIMM kit

This Computer Memory Solutions kit provides 8 GB of DDR3-1066 memory in a matched pair of 4 GB modules. Each stick is a 204-pin unbuffered SODIMM rated at CL7 7-7-7 timing and 1.5 V. The modules are built with major-brand chipsets and carry a lifetime warranty from the manufacturer when purchased directly.

Suited for Gateway NE51B and NE56R notebooks

The kit is validated for Gateway Ne51B16U, Ne51B18U, Ne51B19U, Ne56R41U and Ne56R42U systems that accept two SODIMM modules. Builders upgrading other laptop models or desktop platforms should look elsewhere, as the pin layout, voltage and timing are specific to these machines.

Two-slot maximum and 64-bit OS requirement

The target notebooks have only two memory sockets and a firmware limit of 8 GB total; a 64-bit operating system is required to use the full capacity. If 4 GB is already installed, the system may report roughly 3.5 GB or less depending on memory allocation.

Questions about this item

How does the CL7 latency affect sustained throughput on this DDR3-1066 kit?

CL7 at 1066 MHz gives a 7-7-7 timing cycle that keeps access latency low during long workloads, so the first bottleneck you hit is the 8 GB capacity ceiling rather than timing overhead.

What thermal or acoustic impact should I expect when both SODIMMs run continuously?

The modules have no heat spreader and run at standard 1.5 V, so they add negligible heat and zero noise; system fan behaviour stays governed by the laptop's own thermal design.

Which Gateway models must I already own for this 204-pin DDR3 kit to work?

Compatible systems are the Gateway NE51B16u, NE51B18u, NE51B19u, NE56R41u and NE56R42u — each has two DDR3 SODIMM slots supporting up to 8 GB total.
