8 GB DDR4 3200 MHz SODIMM upgrade for select Acer Aspire 5 laptops, CL16 timing at 1.35 V
This 8 GB DDR4 3200 MHz SODIMM is built for specific Acer Aspire 5 models including the A515-45-R6WB, A515-45-R2B5, A515-56-36UT and A514-54-5629. It uses a 260-pin unbuffered non-ECC layout with CL16 timings and 1.35 V operation. The single module suits owners of those laptops who need more memory for everyday workloads.
If the original stick runs at a lower speed or the system shipped with only 4 GB or 8 GB total, this module raises the ceiling to 20 GB or 24 GB depending on the exact model. The jump is worth it when multitasking feels sluggish or when a 64-bit operating system cannot use more than 4 GB with the current configuration. All memory in the system will run at the slowest installed module or processor limit.
The DDR4 SO-DIMM interface caps transfer rates at the rated 3200 MHz and the laptop’s memory controller determines the actual operating speed. Only one socket is available on these models so dual-channel operation is not possible with this kit alone. Maximum supported capacity is fixed at 20 GB or 24 GB by the platform and cannot be exceeded by adding larger modules.

All installed memory runs at the slowest module's speed; mixing kits may drop the timing below CL16.
