8GB DDR4 2400 SODIMM for Acer Aspire 5

This 8GB DDR4 2400MHz module is built for Acer Aspire 5 A515-54G series laptops including the 5928, 70T, 73WC and 797L models. It uses a 260-pin SO-DIMM form factor running at 1.2V with CL17 timings. The unbuffered, non-ECC design fits the platform's two memory slots supporting up to 32GB total capacity. Buyers needing ECC error correction or registered buffering should choose a different module.

Thermals noise and power draw

Operating at the standard DDR4 voltage of 1.2V, the stick draws minimal power and produces no audible noise because it has no moving parts. Without a heat spreader, the bare PCB relies on the laptop's internal airflow for cooling. Under typical office or web workloads the memory runs well within its thermal envelope. Systems limited to a single memory slot cannot use this upgrade.

Behaviour under sustained load

The 17-17-17 latency timings remain stable during extended sessions because the JEDEC-standard voltage and unbuffered architecture avoid the variability of overclocked profiles. All installed modules will run at the speed of the slowest stick or the processor's memory controller limit. For dual-channel bandwidth the supplier recommends installing a matched pair. A 64-bit operating system is required to address more than 4GB of memory.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 260-pin DDR4 SODIMM in my Acer Aspire 5 A515-54G, and which step do people often miss?

Power off the laptop, remove the bottom cover, insert the module at an angle until the gold contacts are hidden, then press down until both side clips click. The step most people miss is pressing firmly enough to engage both clips; a loose fit causes boot failures.

What maintenance or replacement will this 8 GB DDR4 2400 CL17 module need over time?

No routine maintenance is required. If errors appear, run a memory diagnostic; the module carries a limited lifetime warranty from Computer Memory Solutions for manufacturing defects. Physical damage or voltage misuse is not covered.

What limit appears first when this CL17 1.2 V unbuffered SODIMM runs sustained workloads?

The CAS latency of 17 cycles at DDR4 2400 sets the baseline response time; under continuous load the memory controller and CPU thermal limits will throttle throughput before the module itself reaches a hard ceiling.
