Aug 28, 2016 · For a laptop you need a DDR3 SDRAM SoDIMM of the right speed and voltage. The DDR3 indicates the type of DRAM. SoDIMM indicates a small outline DIMM. (aka notebook form factor). For the other two (speed and voltage) check your manual. It will often state things like DDR-1066 where the 1066 stands for the speed the RAM can work at. In this case ...

PC3-12800 (12800 MB/sec) is the same thing as DDR3 1600MHz (1600 MHz data transfer rate) and it runs at 800 MHz DDR clock. Similarly for others, just divide/multiply by 8. Any memory that has the correct voltage and capacity and is same or faster than what is supported by the board should work in the board.

Jun 19, 2016 · Since I'm a software developer I really need more than that. So I wanted to buy 8GB DDR3L modules to replace my DDR3 modules, but I have two questions about that before I do. 1) Will it even work I know that DDR3L should be backward compatible with DDR3 in terms of voltage, so it should work both on 1.35 and 1.5V as I understand.

I'm really interested on buying a 1x16GB DDR3 SODIMM module because my laptop has only one memory slot. I know that DIMM modules with 16GB do exist. But I can find only packs with two 8GB modules of

Feb 4, 2014 · I am deciding between 2 HP laptops. One has DDR3 SDRAM and the other has SO DIMM. Which is better?

Mar 31, 2022 · I found conflicting information on the usability of a SODIMM DDR3L module, low voltage (1.35v), as a replacement for a DDR3 module (1.5v), including the mention from someone who has a computer store.

Jun 14, 2020 · DDR3 is a single voltage capable memory SoDIMM, which supports 1.5V operation only. It is NOT compatible with systems using 4th gen Intel processors, which exclusively support 1.35V operation for memory.

The DDR3L RAM consumes lesser voltage compared to the DDR3. DDR3L is a dual voltage capable memory SoDIMM, which supports operation at both 1.5V and 1.35V.DDR3 works on 1.5v only while DDR4 consumes 1.2v only.DDR3 RAM uses a 240-pin connector, while DDR4 RAM uses a 288-pin connector.

Apr 20, 2016 · Following on from Grace's answer, this link What's the difference between DDR3 1333 MHz PC3-10600S and DDR3 1333 MHz PC3-10600 states: To answer you actual question correctly. The "S" as in DDR3 10600S for example stands for SO-DIMM which is the size of RAM for Laptops. If you had desktop memory the same RAM would say DDR3 10600.

Jun 30, 2015 · SODIMM is made for laptop/Notebook and SDRAM for desktop. Your PC Acer Aspire XC-215 comes with a SDRAM slot and hence you cant insert a SODIMM RAM module into it.
