Targeted Notebook Upgrade

This 8 GB kit delivers two matched 4 GB DDR3 SO-DIMMs rated at 1066 MHz with CL7 timings. It is built for Compaq Presario CQ62 models including the 101, 102 and 110 series where the factory slots accept 204-pin unbuffered modules.

Sustained Workload Behaviour

Running at the standard 1.5 V the modules maintain their rated 7-7-7 latency without throttling during extended multitasking or large file handling. The major-brand chipset and 2Rx8 organisation keep bandwidth stable across long sessions rather than peaking only in short bursts.

Thermals Noise Power

With no heat spreader the sticks rely on the notebook’s existing airflow and add negligible thermal load. Unbuffered DDR3 at 1.5 V draws modest power and produces no audible noise, leaving the system’s acoustic profile unchanged.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 1.5V DDR3 1066MHz kit draw under sustained load?

These modules run at 1.5V with CL7 timings, the standard voltage for DDR3 SODIMMs, so they add only a small incremental draw to the notebook’s existing memory subsystem.

Does my Compaq Presario CQ62 need any specific BIOS version or chipset to recognise the 2Rx8 204-pin sticks?

The kit is validated for the CQ62-101TU, CQ62-101TX, CQ62-102TX, CQ62-110TU, CQ62-111TU and CQ62-111TX; no extra BIOS step is required beyond the factory release for those models.

Can I keep one existing 4GB module and add just one 4GB stick from this pair?

Each stick is a 4GB 2Rx8 DDR3-1066 SODIMM; mixing ranks or speeds can cause instability, so the pair is intended to be installed together as a matched 8GB kit.
