Ready for Lenovo ThinkPad W541

This kit provides two 8 GB SODIMMs tested for the Lenovo ThinkPad W541, giving 16 GB of DDR3L memory at 1600 MHz. Each module runs at 1.35 V with CL11 timings in an unbuffered, non-ECC configuration. The 204-pin form factor matches the laptop's slots exactly.

Suits W541 owners staying within 32 GB limit

Buyers who need the full 32 GB maximum supported by the W541 should purchase two of these kits to populate all four sockets. The kit is not for systems that require ECC registered DIMMs, higher voltages, or a different pin count.

1.35 V DDR3L voltage decides fit

The 1.35 V operating voltage is the critical specification; a standard 1.5 V DDR3 module will not operate correctly in this platform. Verify the laptop requires DDR3L before ordering.

Questions about this item

Does the kit include both 8 GB modules or do I need to buy a second stick separately?

The package contains two 8 GB SODIMM modules for a total of 16 GB, so nothing extra is required.

My ThinkPad W541 has four slots and supports up to 32 GB — should I choose this 16 GB kit or a larger one?

This 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) kit fills half the slots and leaves room to add another identical kit later if you need the full 32 GB.

What does the 1600 MHz rating actually deliver inside the W541?

The modules run at DDR3L 1600 (PC3L 12800) with CL11 timing at 1.35 V, matching the notebook's native memory speed.
