Targeted DDR3L upgrade

This 16 GB kit contains two 8 GB DDR3L SO-DIMM modules rated at 1600 MHz with CL11 timings. It is built specifically for the Dell OptiPlex 3040M Micro and uses major-brand chips for reliable compatibility.

Plug-and-play fit

The 204-pin unbuffered non-ECC sticks drop straight into the two available slots, reaching the system's 16 GB maximum without configuration. Low 1.35 V operation matches the platform's DDR3L requirement and leaves the original voltage headroom untouched.

Cool, quiet efficiency

Running at standard JEDEC voltage keeps heat output low inside the compact Micro chassis. No heat spreaders are fitted, so airflow passes cleanly over the chips, maintaining silent operation during typical office workloads.

Questions about this item

How much voltage does the DDR3L 1600 kit draw under continuous load?

The modules operate at 1.35 V, the standard voltage for DDR3L, so power draw stays at that level during sustained use.

Do these SO-DIMMs generate noticeable heat or fan noise when the system runs all day?

The kit has no heat spreader and runs at 1.35 V, so thermal output is low and does not increase system fan noise in normal operation.

Which Dell model must the buyer already own for this 16 GB kit to be compatible?

The memory is validated for the Dell Optiplex 3040M (Micro) with two 204-pin SODIMM slots.
