4GB DDR3L SO-DIMM for notebooks
This 4 GB DDR3L module runs at 1600 MHz with CL11 latency and 1.35 V operation. The 204-pin SO-DIMM form factor fits standard laptop memory slots. It is intended for owners of compatible notebooks who need a straightforward capacity increase for everyday multitasking.
Sustained load behaviour
Unbuffered DDR3L at 1.35 V keeps power draw low during extended sessions, helping thermals in thin chassis. CL11 timing at 1600 MHz delivers steady throughput for background tasks and browser tabs without throttling. The module lacks a heat spreader, so airflow in the memory bay matters for long compiles or virtual machines.
Installation notes
Align the notch on the 204-pin edge connector with the slot key and press firmly until the side clips click. Common issues include inserting the module at an angle, which can bend pins, or pairing it with a 1.5 V-only platform that will not boot. Verify the notebook supports DDR3L before purchase.

Questions about this item
Does this 1.35 V DDR3L module run cooler than a standard 1.5 V DDR3 stick under continuous load?
The lower 1.35 V operating voltage reduces power draw and heat output compared with 1.5 V DDR3, so it runs cooler during all-day use.
My laptop has a DDR3 SO-DIMM slot — will this 204-pin CL11 1600 MHz module work without any other parts?
It fits any notebook with a DDR3 204-pin SO-DIMM slot; no extra components are required beyond the module itself.
If I keep my current DDR3 1600 MHz RAM and add this CL11 stick, will the system run both at 1600 MHz?
Both modules share the 1600 MHz speed rating, so the system can run them together at that frequency.
