Micron X Crucial — quality and tested reliability you can trust
As the vertically integrated consumer brand of Micron, Crucial is trusted by millions for reliability, performance, and compatibility. Unlike module assemblers, our unique relationship with Micron involves a deeper level of engineering that delivers powerful performance you can trust. When it comes to memory, don’t settle for less.
- DDR5 architecture includes efficiency improvements that deliver 36% more system bandwidth than DDR4, even at the same theoretical speeds of 3200MHz, due to the high bus efficiency of DDR5 technology. Combined with lower voltage per module, this design provides superior (better) performance.
- Under memory-intensive workloads, DDR5 can deliver up to 2x the bandwidth, per an internal simulation of dual ranked x8 modules in client platforms.
- Only with a DDR5-enabled CPU and motherboard. DDR5 desktop memory is not compatible with DDR4 motherboards.
- DDR5 launch speeds of 4800MHz are comparable to extreme-performance DDR4 memory speeds and are 1.5x faster than maximum standard DDR4 speeds of 3200MHz.
- Compared to published DDR4-3200 speeds.
- DDR5 modules (DIMMs) introduce voltage regulation on the module through a power management integrated circuit (PMIC), which enables better power regulation and reduces the scope of DRAM power delivery network (PDN) management on the motherboard for increased efficiency.

I asked the question here before I bought the module and then checked that the original factory install SoDIMM was the same spec. Got the memory and the laptop huffed a little while ‘training’ the memory with fans on full for a couple of minutes, then POST error asked me to confirm the new memory config, and then it worked.
Incredible value for money when compared to the HP alternative, and it works at full speed just like an original HP module. Highly recommended, and Crucial support desk was reassuring when I was troubled by the fan noise during the POST when the module was first installed. Impressed.
I bought two 32GB sticks separately on the same day saving a substantial amount of cash compared to buying a 64GB kit. Installed and all work fine, used HW Info app to check the sims and they are identical – same specs with both sticks!
Put in my Dell XPS 15 (9520) and works perfectly. Took a while for the PC to boot first time (?) normal since.
Very good value compared with Dell, pity Dell insist on two SO-DIMM as I am left with 2x 8G modules !

Purchased Crucial RAM 32GB Kit (2x16GB) DDR5 5600MHz. On latest (2023) Alienware M16 AMD base model, I replaced my basic 2x8GB 4800Mhz with Crucial ram and it runs them automatically at 5200MHz. They cannot run faster due to, what Crucial explained to me, “processor limitation of AMD 7745HX”. You could try more expensive Kingston Fury that apparently runs 5600MHz. Although they don’t run 5600MHz I am VERY happy with the upgrade (16GB 4800Mhz to 32GB 5200Mhz).
Great ram as described. To be honest DDR4 can cover all my needs and cheaper, but my Legion 5 PRO 2022 only support DDR5 so I have to compromise. In summarization this one is still good of value cheaper than all I other famous brand I can find.
My first DDR5 RAM. Install was a piece of cake and it performs really well. The increased speed of DDR5 makes a huge difference in performance and Crucial is one of the trusted brands – I would never buy a noname for such a crucial component.
I needed RAM upgrade for my gaming laptop, and this one did the trick. Luckily, I had one slot empty (single 16GB in the other one), so installation was quick and easy!
Successfully upgraded my Dell Inspiron 14 Plus laptop. The laptop had 8Gb fixed plus 8Gb removable, a total of 16Gb of memory. Replaced the 8Gb memory with the Crucial 32Gb and works! So it has now a total of 40Gb or memory. Initially I thought it did not work, but reading some reviews here and suggested that you need to wait few minutes after switching on, which I did not do previously. That was the key trick!
It was easy to install and worked the first time, I have had no problems with this memory. My laptop is so much faster now. You just need to ensure that your Laptop is compatible with it. It comes well packaged.
I would recommend this item if you are looking to add memory to your Laptop.
I cannot attest to the techy side of things but what i do know is , after having a firend install this for me, which was very quick and easy!, my old pc is working so much better and faster than it ever did before.
It has made a drastic difference in operating in every way.
100% recommend.
Advise looking to other reviews for a more technical approach to whats what but absolutely great performance in my opinion.
Very good Ram, very good packaging. looks great and is a luxury to have 16 GB. It works with Intel and AMD motherboards. Very easy to install straight from the box.
Tried in several DDR4 mother boards both AMD & Intel, and no issues with compatibility at all , running both XMP (& AMD equivalent) and JEDEC speeds.
Even used in 4 x DIMM configurations (sold as dual modules), the RAM chips have all been Micron manufactured so can mix multiple packs of this RAM no problems.
Standard fitting. Does exactly what it’s meant to do, performs as expected and no hardware issues. It has dramatically improved my computer speed and gaming experience. Would recommend.
I have used plenty of Crucial memory products and SSDs over the years all of which have worked amazingly well and proved to be reliable, this DDR5 memory module is no exception.
This module comes in the usual type of case to keep it safe and is of a SODIMM type format to fit laptops and other smaller boards. As this is single sided it will be compatible with most boards that support DDR5 and with a bus speed of 4800Mhz at CL40 this is fast and I mean fast.
DDR5 has been around for quite a while now in graphics cards but for mainstream RAM it is fairly new so the cost is still at a premium for this kind of memory module.
I tested this in my sons laptop in place of his slower supplied stick as mine only supports DDR4, so you will have to be sure that your product does support this. Once fitted which is a simple plug and play he tested it on a couple of games and in a 3D design program all of which worked perfectly. His laptop also seems to be smoother under Windows 11 Pro with this RAM fitted.
The usual great quality expected from Crucial and good value for 16Gb of DDR5.
Recommended.
Really ? A little plastic case for a 100 bit of fragile memory, if it was in a shop then fine but this is shipped so needs better packaging. The actual product is excellent. I haven’t tried to mess with it in anyway as it’s not my cup of tea overclocking but made my laptop boot much quicke
16 GB RAM for over 100 is not cheap, but this is DDR5 RAM, which is new, so it’s expected.
This is laptop memory and so far only compatible with Intel 12th Gen processors. 4800 MHz, CL40, SODIMM.
If you need a memory boost for your laptop, this is a great option. Just add the RAM in and off you go. DDR5 is much faster than DDR4 as it has a lot more bandwidth, so while it seems a lot more expensive, it also offers a lot more performance in return.
Changing/upgrading laptop parts isn’t as easy as desktops, however, RAM is probably the easiest thing to add, so it should be straightforward for this upgrade.
Overall, for the performance you get, for new technology, for a well-established and reliable RAM brand, I would say this is pretty good value and worth getting.
This is a one stick 16GB laptop DDR5 memory. I got this to upgrade the memory in my laptop, pushing from 8GB to 16GB. It’s good quality, easy to install and you can notice the obvious difference in speed once installed. Check your laptop before buying as it doesn’t work on any laptop, you will need to check the specificiations of the laptop and memory. Price wise, it seems a good price at just over 100.
For most users, this is like the NASA of RAM.
You need to ensure that your Laptop is compatible with it. Crucial is a solid reliable brand.
What I would say is ensure that to are upgrading here to the most appropriate RAM for you, Crucial do different kinds of RAM speeds for different tasks and it’s always worth checking. I am not some kind of technical whizz, I have just built a few bits along the way – but it’s so much more complex nowadays. If you are wanting a quick system, then there’s no point in spending if other parts of your system are slowing it down.
If you aren’t sure, check out technical websites or maybe take it to a local reputable IT place to install and check with prior to purchasing.
There are more technically minded reviewers as well and I would recommend reading those here.
I would, however – and this is rare – advise a bit MORE packaging for items of this nature.
Five Stars
A very good way to upgrade your laptop, this RAM is very easy to install and the laptop recognize it quickly.
The RAM came very well packaged and fast delivery.
Works perfectly.
I would highly recommend.
Crucial RAM CT16G48C40S5 16GB DDR5 Laptop Memory
============================================
You get 1 stick of 16Gb DDR5 SO DIMMS, (Laptop memory). Great for upgrading your laptop – make sure you have a free bank on your laptop before buying,and check compatibility.
DDR5 comes with tons of notable benefits including increased load times and file transfers. Other than these, there’s also optimised innovation for stable and balanced performance, more responsive multitasking, and enhanced power efficiency. Although lots of earlier benefits come from obvious sources like a speedy memory bus, optimised power efficiency is quite interesting.
All DDR5 memory modules begin with operating voltages of 1.1V. Plus, it introduces an onboard power management integrated circuit or PMIC. It vigorously monitors memory voltages and allows changes based on the module’s needs. When the frequency is low, the voltage drops. Consequently you get an extremely power-efficient and stable memory system.
Don’t forget that the DDR5 memory is still a brand new technology. With that, these SO DIMM modules will only function with DDR5 laptops. To make sure of its compatibility with your system, you can check with Crucial’s “Selector Tool” available on its website.
If your looking to upgrade your laptops memory I have to say you will find it hard to beat Crucial for A price to performancence and B quality in this price range
This Is DDR5 4800 mhz 16 gb CL40 this is super fast memory
Make sure to check compatability as some Laptops don’t well Can’t support ram this fast expecially pre 2020 even some more recent machines can’t support DDR5
If your looking to convert your laptops 4gb or 8gb and double it to have twice the horse power and at rocket speeds look no further than this Crucial DIM for you memory and even for storage needs my SSD is still going strong 4 years later from Crucial so I already know about there high quality products or at least in my experience and this is an ideal upgrade for content creators editors 3D modeling etc
This 16GB DDR5 4800MHz CL40 laptop memory works excellent with no any errors. I allready have exactly one of them in my laptop. DDR5- they are not just faster, they are much better then my old ones. Compatible with many different laptop models, but compatible only with DDR5-enabled laptop, won’t work with DDR4-enabled laptops. Faster load times and file transfers- Crucial DDR5 laptop memory can empower your computer to transfer data 50% faster than DDR4 at launch, resulting in shorter load times, file transfers, downloads, lag time and improved refresh rates. Significant improvements to DDR5 channel architecture can help you get more work done in less time. With nearly 2x the bandwidth of DDR4- this is really awsome and really works! I have to admit that this 16GB RAM does a pleasantly surprising job. The price at the moment is only ( 107.99 ) and this is excellent price for sure. Great quality and I can certainly recommend them to anyone who only needs it!
