8GB DDR3 upgrade for HP Pavilion 500 series

This 8 GB DDR3-1600 module is built for HP Pavilion 500-046, 500-047c, 500-054, 500-056 and 500-089 desktops. It adds a single 240-pin DIMM to the board, raising total memory towards the 16 GB maximum supported by these systems. The kit suits owners who want more capacity for everyday multitasking without replacing existing sticks.

Standard voltage and unbuffered operation

The module runs at 1.5 V with CL11 11-11-11 timings and no heat spreader. As an unbuffered non-ECC DIMM it draws typical DDR3 power and produces no extra fan noise beyond the system’s normal thermal profile. The major-brand chipset ensures stable operation at the rated 1600 MHz speed within the original chassis airflow.

Single stick with lifetime exchange coverage

The package contains one 8 GB stick backed by a limited lifetime warranty for exchange when purchased directly from the manufacturer. No software, cables or additional hardware are included. Builders who need to fill both expansion slots for dual-channel bandwidth must buy a second module separately. Buyers requiring ECC or registered memory for server workloads cannot use this kit.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 240-pin DDR3 DIMM in my HP Pavilion 500-046, and which slot should I use first?

Power off the PC, open the case, align the notch on the 240-pin DDR3 module with the key in the first DIMM slot, press down firmly until both side clips click, then close the case and power on.

Will the 8GB 1600MHz CL11 module need any firmware updates or cleaning over time?

No firmware updates are required for this DDR3 DIMM; occasional dust removal with compressed air is sufficient, and the module is covered by a limited lifetime warranty from Computer Memory Solutions.

At what point does the single 8GB 1600MHz stick limit performance under sustained heavy workloads?

The 8GB capacity and single-channel operation become the bottleneck first during sustained heavy workloads, before the 1600MHz speed or CL11 latency limits throughput.
