The Kingston Memory Module DDR4 8GB 3200MHz (KCP432SS8/8) is a single SO‑DIMM designed for laptop use. It provides 8 GB of DDR4 memory at a clock speed of 3200 MHz with a CAS latency of 22 and operates at 1.2 V. The 260‑pin SO‑DIMM form factor ensures compatibility with many notebook and compact desktop platforms that support DDR4 SO‑DIMM modules, improving multitasking performance and system responsiveness.

Advantages

This Kingston DDR4 8GB 3200MHz module delivers higher data transfer rates compared with lower‑frequency DDR4 modules while maintaining standard 1.2 V power consumption. The 260‑pin SO‑DIMM format is suitable for laptops and small form factor systems. As a single 8 GB module, it can be used to expand existing memory capacity or to replace a faulty module, enabling smoother application switching and improved performance in memory‑dependent tasks.

Suitable for

• Upgrading laptop RAM to increase multitasking capacity
• Replacing an existing 8 GB DDR4 SO‑DIMM module
• Small form factor PCs and mini‑PCs that use 260‑pin SO‑DIMM DDR4
• Everyday productivity tasks, web browsing, and office applications

How to use

Power off the laptop and disconnect its power source and battery if removable. Open the memory compartment or access panel following the device manufacturer’s instructions. Ground yourself to prevent electrostatic discharge. Align the notch on the 260‑pin SO‑DIMM with the slot on the motherboard and insert the module at a slight angle, then press down until the side clips lock it into place. Reassemble the device, reconnect power, and boot the system. Verify the new memory is recognized in the BIOS/UEFI or the operating system memory settings.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, install the Kingston DDR4 8GB 3200MHz alongside a matched module (same speed and timing) to enable dual‑channel operation when the system supports it. Ensure your laptop or motherboard supports 3200 MHz SO‑DIMM modules and check the maximum supported memory per slot. If the system does not boot after installation, reseat the module and confirm BIOS/UEFI settings and compatibility.
