Timetec 16GB DDR5 5600MHz CL46 262-Pin SODIMM Laptop RAM

SKU CH-TBG8-57V01

16 GB DDR5 laptop memory running at 5600 MHz with CL46 latency and 1.1 V operation

  • Total capacity16 GB
  • CAS latencyCL46
  • Product type262-Pin DDR5 SO-DIMM
  • 16GB DDR5 capacity speeds up multitasking and heavy workloads
  • 5600MHz frequency delivers 44800MB/s peak data transfer rate
  • CL46 latency with 1.1V operation keeps power draw low
  • On-die ECC self-corrects DRAM cells for stable operation
  • Single-rank 1Rx8 262-pin SODIMM fits DDR5 laptop slots

Laptop DDR5 upgrade

This 16 GB DDR5 SODIMM upgrades compatible laptops to 5600 MHz speed with CL46 latency. It uses a 262-pin unbuffered non-ECC layout at 1.1 V. The single-rank module suits users who need more memory bandwidth for everyday multitasking.

Thermals and power draw

Operating at 1.1 V, the module draws less power than DDR4 equivalents while delivering 1.5× the data rate. On-die ECC and an onboard PMIC maintain stable voltage regulation during sustained workloads. No active cooling is required on the memory itself.

Build integration

The stick fits any laptop slot wired for DDR5 262-pin SO-DIMMs and will not seat in DDR4 sockets. JEDEC-standard timings of CL46-46-46-90 allow plug-and-play operation without BIOS tuning. Buyers needing ECC registered modules or capacities above 16 GB per slot should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How do I install this 262-pin DDR5 SODIMM and what is the step most people miss?

Power off the laptop and disconnect the battery if possible. Open the memory compartment, align the module notch with the slot key, insert at an angle until the contacts are fully seated, then press down evenly until both side clips click into place. The step most people miss is confirming that both retention clips have fully locked.

What maintenance or replacement will this 16GB DDR5 module need later?

No routine maintenance is required for this memory. Keep the laptop vents clear so the module stays within its operating temperature range. Replacement is only necessary if you need more than 16GB capacity or a higher frequency than 5600MHz.

What limit appears first on this CL46 1.1V module under sustained heavy workloads?

The primary limit is the module's rated latency of CL46-46-46-90 at 5600MHz. Under continuous load the memory will operate at these timings and 1.1V; if the system thermal solution cannot dissipate the heat, the controller may throttle frequency to protect the module.
