System-specific 8 GB DDR3L SODIMM

This 8 GB DDR3L SODIMM module is built for the Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E531 notebook. It arrives as a single 204-pin stick rated at 1600 MHz with CL11 timings and 1.35 V operation. Buyers who need ECC or registered memory should look elsewhere.

DDR3L 1600 speed ceiling

The DDR3L 1600 interface caps transfer rates at PC3L 12800, so the module cannot exceed that bandwidth regardless of the processor installed. Systems limited to lower DDR3 speeds will still run the stick at the highest mutually supported frequency.

8 GB single-stick limit

The Edge E531 accepts a maximum of 8 GB per socket across its two slots, making this 8 GB stick the largest single module the platform supports. Installing a higher-capacity stick would leave memory unaddressable.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 8 GB module or a different capacity for my ThinkPad Edge E531?

The Edge E531 supports a maximum of 8 GB across two slots, so this single 8 GB stick fills the limit in one slot and leaves the second free.

What does the 1600 MHz rating deliver once the module is installed?

It runs at 1600 MHz with CL11 11-11-11 timings at 1.35 V, giving the rated PC3L-12800 bandwidth in the notebook.

Is the 204-pin DDR3L SO-DIMM interface the limiting factor for speed?

Yes, the 204-pin DDR3L SO-DIMM form factor caps transfer rates at the DDR3-1600 / PC3L-12800 level used by this module.
