Dell 8GB DDR4 260-Pin 2133MHz Memory Module

Overview

The Dell SNPTD3KXC/8G is an 8GB DDR4 memory module designed for notebooks and compact systems that use a 260-pin SO DIMM slot. Operating at 2133 MHz with a PC4 17000 data rate, it delivers the bandwidth needed to handle modern operating systems, multiple browser tabs, and everyday productivity tasks without lag. Its low 1.2-volt power consumption helps maintain battery life and reduce heat, making it well suited for slim laptops and small form factor builds.

This memory module features a dual rank 2Rx8 design that allows the memory controller to interleave data, improving access times and responsiveness when working with large spreadsheets, photo libraries, or other demanding applications. Installation is simple and quick, enabling most systems to recognize the upgrade automatically and resume work promptly.
