Targeted Dell desktop upgrade

This 8GB DDR4 DIMM is built for the Inspiron 3268, OptiPlex 5050 SFF or Tower, and OptiPlex 7040 Mini Tower. It adds a single 288-pin module to systems that accept non-ECC unbuffered memory running at 1.2V. Home-office users and IT teams can expand capacity without guessing compatibility.

From smaller kits to full 64GB potential

The supported platforms top out at 64GB across four slots, so this 8GB stick suits owners moving up from 4GB or 8GB factory configs. The jump is worthwhile when multitasking slows under browser tabs, office suites or light VMs. Buyers who need ECC, registered modules or speeds beyond 2400MHz should look elsewhere.

Simple slot-in install

Align the notch on the 288-pin edge connector, press firmly until the retention clips click, then power on. No BIOS tuning is required; the board reads the CL17 17-17-17 timings automatically. The most common issue is seating the module unevenly — reseat if the system fails to POST or shows the original capacity.

Questions about this item

Will the 288-pin DDR4 DIMM fit the OptiPlex 5050 SFF chassis?

Yes, the module is a standard 288-pin DDR4 DIMM and the OptiPlex 5050 SFF accepts full-height DIMMs in its four slots.

What is the correct slot order when adding this 8 GB stick to an OptiPlex 7040 Mini Tower?

Populate the lowest-numbered empty slot first; the board expects DIMMs in sequential order starting from slot one.

When should this CL17 2400 MHz module be replaced?

Replace it if memory diagnostics report errors or if you expand beyond the 64 GB maximum supported by the platform.
