Alienware 13 R2 Memory Upgrade

This 16 GB kit is built specifically for the Alienware 13 R2 notebook. It contains two 8 GB DDR3L SODIMM modules that match the factory memory specification. Buyers who need a different capacity, a different form factor or a newer memory generation will not be able to use this kit.

204-Pin DDR3L SO-DIMM Kit

The two sticks install directly into the laptop's two SODIMM slots without extra adapters or tools. Unbuffered, non-ECC operation at 1.35 V keeps power draw low and leaves the existing thermal solution unchanged. Systems that require registered modules, ECC support or a different pin count cannot accept this memory.

16 GB CL11 DDR3-1600 Capacity

Running at 1600 MHz with 11-11-11 timings, the kit delivers the maximum memory the Alienware 13 R2 can address across its two slots. It handles multitasking and typical productivity workloads within that 16 GB ceiling. Workloads that demand more than 16 GB of system memory will exceed the platform limit.

Questions about this item

Will the CL11 timing hold up during long sessions?

The modules run at CL11 with 11-11-11 timings at 1600 MHz, so latency stays consistent under sustained load.

How much heat or noise do these sticks add when the laptop runs all day?

They have no heat spreader and operate at 1.35 V DDR3L, so they add minimal heat and zero noise to the system.

My Alienware 13 R2 currently has one 8 GB stick — can I just add this kit?

The laptop has two SODIMM sockets and a 16 GB maximum, so you must replace the existing module with this 2 x 8 GB kit.
