Model specifications

Exact part / capacityKingston ValueRAM KVR52S42BS6-8; 8 GB
Form factor / rank262-pin DDR5 SO-DIMM; single rank, 1Rx16
Speed / profileDDR5-5200 (PC5-5200), JEDEC timing 42-42-42 (CL42). SPD is programmed for this JEDEC profile; no XMP or EXPO profile is specified.
Voltage1.1 V operating module voltage
ECC / bufferingNon-ECC, unbuffered client module. DDR5 on-die ECC is present in the memory devices; it is not system-level ECC.

Compatibility guidance

  • Requires a laptop/compact host with a 262-pin DDR5 SO-DIMM socket; it will not fit or operate in a DDR4 or desktop DIMM slot.
  • Verify support for 8 GB capacity and single-rank x16 organization in the notebook's CPU and firmware documentation. The system may select a lower JEDEC rate.
  • The rated 5200 MT/s is the module's JEDEC SPD setting, not an XMP/EXPO overclock. Confirm host support for this data rate.
  • Consult the service manual for memory maximums and slot order. Follow battery isolation, power-down and ESD instructions before fitting.
