Capacity and fit

This is a 4GB DDR3 SO-DIMM built for laptops that accept 204-pin unbuffered memory. It suits owners restoring or upgrading an older notebook where a single 4GB stick matches the board layout. Buyers who want more storage than 4GB provides should look at higher-capacity kits instead.

Installation notes

The module plugs into a standard 204-pin SO-DIMM slot and runs at 1.50V without ECC or registration. Alignment is straightforward; the only common issue is a slot that is keyed for a different DDR generation or a BIOS that does not recognise the density.

Deciding specification

The memory operates at DDR3 1600 with a CAS latency of CL11. That speed and timing combination determines whether the module will run at its rated frequency or drop back to a lower setting on a given platform.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the module is running at DDR3 1600 with CL11 after installation?

Open the BIOS or a system-information tool such as CPU-Z and verify the memory tab shows 1600 MT/s and a CAS latency of 11.

What ships with the KVR16S11S8/4 and is any extra hardware required?

The box contains the single 4 GB 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM only; no cables, adapters or tools are needed for a standard laptop slot.

Should I choose this 4 GB CL11 stick or a higher-capacity DDR3 1600 module for my upgrade?

Pick this 4 GB CL11 1.50 V module if your laptop has a free 204-pin slot and the manufacturer qualifies 4 GB DDR3 1600 unbuffered non-ECC memory.
