Alienware M17X R4 memory kit

This 16 GB kit contains two 8 GB DDR3L SODIMM modules built specifically for the Alienware M17X R4 notebook. It targets owners who need the full 16 GB capacity in a matched pair for stable dual-channel operation.

DDR3L 1600 at 1.35 V

The decisive specification is the DDR3L 1600 speed running at 1.35 V with CL11 11-11-11 timings; the M17X R4 requires this exact voltage and pin-out, so standard 1.5 V DDR3 will not work.

Tool-free slot access

Installation uses the two SODIMM slots accessible under the bottom service panel with no special tools required; the common mistake is mixing these low-voltage sticks with 1.5 V modules, which prevents the system from posting.

Questions about this item

Will the 1600 MHz rating run at full speed in my Alienware M17X R4?

The kit is rated at DDR3L 1600 (PC3L 12800). The notebook's memory controller determines the final operating frequency; if the system supports 1600 MHz the modules will run at that speed.

Does the 204-pin SO-DIMM interface limit the total capacity I can install?

The 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM form factor is required by the M17X R4. The laptop has four sockets and a maximum supported capacity of 32 GB, so this 16 GB kit fits within that limit.

Will the two 8 GB sticks fit the four SODIMM slots in the Alienware M17X R4?

Each module is a standard 204-pin SO-DIMM without a heat spreader. The M17X R4 provides four such slots, so the pair installs directly and leaves two slots free for future expansion.
