Product Number

CMSO8GX3M1A1600C11

Main Specifications

Total Capacity

8 GB

Total Capacity

The amount of information that can be held by RAM memory. For most uses, a capacity of 8-16GB is recommended depending on requirements.

Type

DDR3

Type

DDR3

They are used in older computer systems, are slower than DDR4. They are not compatible with motherboards that support DDR4.

Speed

1600

Speed

The main characteristic of memory speed.

It should be supported by the motherboard, there is no point in installing memory of higher speed than what the motherboard supports.

Computer Type

Laptop

Computer Type

The type of computer for which the memory is intended.

Size

SO-DIMM GB

Size

The physical size of the RAM. The motherboard must support the corresponding size.

DIMM: This is the classic large memory module mainly used in desktop computers.

SODIMM: This is a smaller version of DIMM, designed for laptops and devices with limited space.

LCAMM2: A new RAM technology, with a much slimmer size and double the data bus width, allowing for higher speeds and greater performance in thinner laptops.

SO-DIMM

Small physical size that usually refers to laptop computers.

Device Group

-

UDIMM

-

UDIMM

It is the "classic" type of RAM used by most home computers and gaming PCs for decades.

CUDIMM

-

CUDIMM

Clocked Unbuffered DIMM. This is the new DDR5 standard designed to break the barrier of very high speeds. It features an additional chip on the RAM stick called the Client Clock Driver (CKD). Requires support from CPU/Motherboard (e.g. Intel Arrow Lake and later)

Special Features

Modules

1

Modules

The number of memory sticks. The motherboard should have the corresponding number of slots.

Often, the use of multiple sticks is preferred, allowing them to operate in parallel (e.g. dual channel), which offers better performance. To operate memory sticks in parallel, the motherboard must support it.

CAS Latency

11

CAS Latency

The response time of the RAM memory to the commands received by the system.

The smaller the better for memories with the same frequency, otherwise the frequency is more important for the speed of the memory.

Memory Profile

-

RGB Lighting

No

RGB Lighting

It features built-in RGB lighting with multiple colors.

The RGB lighting can take on various shades by combining the colors red, green, and blue, offering a modern aesthetic result.
