Crucial 16GB 3200MHz CL22 DDR4 Laptop RAM

The Crucial CB16GS3200 is a 16GB DDR4 SO-DIMM module designed specifically for laptops and compact systems that accept the notebook-form-factor memory standard. Running at 3200MHz (3200 MT/s) with a CL22 primary latency and a tested timing profile of 22-22-22, it delivers reliable everyday throughput for a wide range of workloads. Operating at a low 1.2V, it is designed to draw less power than earlier DDR3 modules, which can contribute to better thermal behaviour inside the tight enclosures typical of modern laptops. Upgrading to 16GB of RAM can noticeably reduce the time your system spends moving data in and out of storage when switching between applications. Tasks such as managing multiple browser tabs, working with large spreadsheets, editing documents, and running productivity software simultaneously become smoother because more active data can reside in fast memory rather than being paged to slower storage. Users who regularly run moderately data-intensive applications may also notice improved responsiveness compared to systems equipped with 8GB or less. The CB16GS3200 ships as a single 16GB stick (16GB x 1 kit), giving you the full capacity in one module. Its compact SO-DIMM form factor measures 6.9 x 1.1 x 2.8 cm and weighs approximately 9 grams, making it easy to install in standard laptop memory slots. The module is not ECC-enabled and does not carry an XMP or similar overclocking profile; it is intended to operate at its rated 3200MHz speed within the memory controller specifications of compatible laptops. Crucial backs this module with a 10-year limited warranty, which provides extended peace of mind for a component that is expected to remain in service for the life of the host laptop. — Verified Specifications — Model Number: CB16GS3200 Capacity: 16GB (single module) Memory Type: DDR4 Form Factor: SO-DIMM Speed: 3200MHz (3200 MT/s) Primary Latency: CL22 Tested Timing: 22-22-22 Voltage: 1.2V ECC: No Dimensions: 6.9 x 1.1 x 2.8 cm; ~9 g Warranty: 10 years (limited)
