Crucial 8GB DDR5-4800MHz SODIMM Laptop RAM (CT8G48C40S5)
Product details and customer reviews
The Crucial CT8G48C40S5 is an 8GB DDR5 SODIMM laptop memory module designed for compatible laptops and compact PCs that support DDR5 memory.
Running at 4800MT/s, it provides the higher bandwidth of DDR5 while operating at just 1.1V, helping improve multitasking, system responsiveness, and general performance in supported systems. Crucial’s DDR5 platform is designed around higher bandwidth, lower voltage, and greater memory efficiency than previous DDR4 generations.
8GB DDR5 Capacity
The module adds 8GB of system memory, making it a practical upgrade for everyday laptop workloads such as:
Web browsing
Microsoft Office
Online classes
Video streaming
General productivity
Light photo editing
Multitasking
Adding memory can help reduce slowdowns when multiple applications or browser tabs are open.
DDR5-4800 Performance
The CT8G48C40S5 operates at DDR5-4800 / 4800MT/s.
Crucial notes that DDR5-4800 provides around 50% higher transfer rates than DDR4-3200, giving compatible systems access to more memory bandwidth for demanding workloads.
CL40 Latency
This module uses a CL40 latency class, which is standard for DDR5-4800 JEDEC memory.
It is intended to work at supported JEDEC speeds without requiring manual overclocking.
Low 1.1V Operating Voltage
DDR5 reduces operating voltage to 1.1V, compared with the 1.2V commonly used by standard DDR4 modules.
Lower operating voltage helps improve power efficiency, which is especially useful in laptops where battery life and thermal efficiency matter.
DDR5 SODIMM Form Factor
This module uses the compact SODIMM form factor, designed primarily for:
Laptops
Gaming laptops
Mini PCs
Small-form-factor systems
Compact workstations
It is not designed for standard desktop DDR5 DIMM slots.
Higher Memory Bandwidth
DDR5 improves effective memory bandwidth through architectural changes designed to feed modern multi-core CPUs more efficiently.
This helps with workloads such as multitasking, productivity, content creation, and other memory-intensive applications.
Improved Power Efficiency
Crucial highlights DDR5’s combination of higher bandwidth and reduced voltage as a key advantage over previous-generation memory.
For laptops, this means improved memory performance without requiring the higher operating voltage of DDR4.
Easy Laptop Upgrade
For supported systems, installing the module is straightforward:
Power off the laptop.
Disconnect the charger.
Access the memory compartment.
Insert the module into an available DDR5 SODIMM slot.
Reassemble and restart.
Always verify your laptop’s maximum supported capacity, DDR generation, and available memory slots before installation.
