Compatible Alienware Desktop Memory

This 8 GB DDR4 module is built for Alienware Area-51 R4, R5 and R6 desktops. It installs in a single 288-pin DIMM slot and runs at 2400 MHz with CL17 timing. The unbuffered non-ECC design matches the original system specification.

Sustained Load Behaviour

Rated at 1.2 V, the stick operates at its rated 2400 MHz speed continuously without down-clocking. If mixed with slower modules the whole array will run at the lowest common speed. Matched-pair installation is recommended to enable dual-channel throughput.

Thermals Noise Power

No heat spreader is fitted, so the module relies on case airflow for cooling. Power draw stays at the standard DDR4 1.2 V level and the unbuffered design adds no active components that generate noise.

Questions about this item

Does the 1.2 V DDR4 2400 module run hot or need extra cooling when the Area-51 R5 is under load all day?

The stick operates at the standard 1.2 V and has no heat spreader, so it relies on normal case airflow; no additional cooling is required for typical desktop workloads.

What must already be in the Alienware Area-51 R4 for this 288-pin DIMM to work?

The motherboard needs a free DDR4 288-pin DIMM slot and a 64-bit operating system to address the full 8 GB capacity.

If I keep the original memory in my Area-51 R6 and add this CL17 stick, will the system run at the slower module's speed?

Yes, all installed modules will run at the slowest timing and speed present, so the original memory dictates the final performance.
