8GB DDR3 1066MHz kit for Compaq Presario

This 8GB kit supplies two 4GB DDR3 SO-DIMMs rated at 1066MHz with CL7 timing. It targets owners of listed Compaq Presario CQ56 and CQ57 notebooks who need a straightforward memory upgrade. The modules are unbuffered, non-ECC and run at 1.5V.

Sustained load behaviour

At the rated 1066MHz speed and 7-7-7 timings the modules maintain consistent throughput during extended sessions. The major-brand chipset and 2Rx8 organisation help keep latency stable when the system runs memory-intensive tasks for long periods. No heat spreader is fitted.

Upgrade context

The kit replaces the factory-installed memory in compatible CQ56 and CQ57 models, doubling capacity to 8GB where the original configuration was lower. The jump is worthwhile when the notebook struggles with multitasking or larger datasets. Buyers needing more than 8GB or a different DDR generation cannot use this kit.

Highlights

  • 8 GB total capacity from two 4 GB modules for everyday multitasking
  • DDR3 1066 MHz CL7 timing delivers responsive performance for compatible notebooks
  • Guaranteed fit with listed Compaq Presario CQ56 and CQ57 models

Questions about this item

How much power does the 1.5V DDR3 kit draw when the laptop runs all day?

The modules run at the standard 1.5V DDR3 voltage, so power draw stays within the notebook's normal memory budget during extended use.

Does my Compaq Presario CQ56-115DX need any extra parts to use these 204-pin SODIMMs?

No extra parts are required; the kit plugs directly into the two SODIMM slots already present in the CQ56-115DX.

Will the CL7 timing work alongside the original 1066MHz sticks already in my CQ57-229WM?

Yes, the CL7 7-7-7 timing matches the 1066MHz specification, so the new pair will run in step with any existing PC3-8500 modules.
