16GB dual-channel DDR3L kit

This 16GB kit contains two 8GB DDR3L SODIMM modules rated at 1600MHz with CL11 latency. It targets laptops, all-in-one PCs and NAS units that use 204-pin DDR3L slots and run at 1.35V. The unbuffered, non-ECC design matches mainstream mobile platforms.

JEDEC-compliant low-voltage build

Each module follows JEDEC PC3L-12800 specifications and is RoHS compliant, so the kit qualifies as a warranty-safe upgrade for OEM systems. The 1.35V operating voltage reduces power draw compared to standard 1.5V DDR3, helping thermal headroom in compact chassis. No heat spreaders are fitted, keeping the profile slim for tight SODIMM sockets.

Upgrade from 4GB or 8GB factory configs

Systems shipping with a single 4GB or 8GB stick gain dual-channel bandwidth and double the capacity by installing this pair. The jump is worthwhile when multitasking with many browser tabs, office suites or light virtual machines on DDR3L-era hardware. Buyers needing more than 16GB or a faster memory standard cannot use this kit.

Questions about this item

What speed does the DDR3L 1600 PC3L-12800 interface actually run at?

The kit is rated for DDR3L 1600, which equals a PC3L-12800 data rate of 1600 MT/s. Your system will clock it to the highest speed both the memory controller and the modules support, typically 1600 MT/s at CL11.

What physical slot does the 204-pin SO-DIMM need?

Each module uses the standard 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM form factor. It fits any laptop, mini-PC or NAS slot keyed for DDR3L 1.35 V unbuffered memory.

Which way round do the modules go in, and what clicks?

Align the notch on the module with the key in the socket, press the stick in at a slight angle until the gold contacts disappear, then press down firmly until the side clips snap into the notches on both edges.
