Kingston KFYHV1-HYC DDR3 SODIMM

This is a 4GB DDR3 204-pin SODIMM module from Kingston Technology Corp. It runs at DDR3-1600 speed with a PC3-12800 rating and CL11 latency. The module operates at 1.5V and uses unbuffered, non-ECC memory with a 2Rx8 chip organisation.

Suitable for laptop memory upgrades

This module suits owners of laptops that accept 204-pin DDR3 SODIMMs running at 1.5V with CL11 timing. It is not for systems that require ECC or registered memory. Buyers who need a higher capacity than 4GB or a different voltage should look at other options.

204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM interface

The single specification that decides fitment is the 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM form factor combined with 1.5V operation. The memory slot must match this exact interface and voltage for the module to install and function correctly.

Questions about this item

Does this 204-pin DDR3 SODIMM fit a laptop slot keyed for DDR3 memory?

Yes, the module uses the standard 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM form factor with the DDR3 key notch, so it fits any laptop slot designed for DDR3 SODIMMs.

What is the correct way to seat this 1.5V module, and what step do people often miss?

Insert the gold-edge connector at the angle the slot allows, then press down evenly until both side clips snap into the notches on the PCB; the step often missed is verifying both clips are fully latched.

Will this CL11 1600 MHz stick need any firmware updates or component swaps over its life?

No, memory modules have no firmware or moving parts; the only later action is replacement if a fault develops or if you upgrade to a higher capacity kit.
