Overview

The HyperX Impact HX424S14IB2/8 is an 8GB DDR4 SODIMM running at 2400MHz with CL14 timings — a specification that places it above the DDR4-2133 baseline that many laptops ship with from the factory. The difference matters most in two scenarios: systems with integrated graphics, where the GPU and CPU share the same memory pool and bandwidth directly affects rendering throughput, and multitasking workloads where multiple applications compete for fast data access simultaneously. The 1.2V operating voltage keeps it within the thermal limits of mainstream laptop chassis, including thin-and-light designs that run tight thermal margins under sustained load.

This module targets Intel Series 100 and 200 chipsets and ships with XMP profiles for simplified BIOS configuration to rated speeds. It's the practical upgrade for a laptop purchased with a single 4GB stick that's now hitting the ceiling on Chrome tabs, light virtualization, or concurrent creative software. The SODIMM form factor also fits SODIMM-slot small form factor desktops, extending its deployment options beyond laptops. HyperX's manufacturing consistency for SODIMM modules is well-established, making this a low-friction, high-confidence path to expanding system memory capacity without platform risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

The HX424S14IB2/8 is specifically optimized for Intel Series 100 and 200 chipsets — that covers 6th and 7th generation Intel Core platforms (Skylake, Kaby Lake). It will physically fit any SODIMM-compatible slot, but XMP profile support and guaranteed rated-speed operation are validated on those Intel chipsets. Verify your platform before assuming AMD compatibility.
CAS latency 14 means the module responds to a memory access command in 14 clock cycles rather than 16. At 2400MHz, that's a measurable but modest real-world difference — most users won't feel it in general productivity, but latency-sensitive workloads like gaming or real-time audio processing will show a slight edge over CL16 configurations.
Dual-channel requires a matched pair running in corresponding slots. If your existing stick is also 8GB DDR4 and runs at or below 2400MHz, the system will attempt to pair them — but mixed-SKU pairing isn't guaranteed to run at rated speeds or with XMP active. For reliable dual-channel, a matched HyperX pair is the cleaner solution.
XMP does not auto-enable on every system. On compatible Intel platforms, you'll typically need to enter BIOS/UEFI and manually enable XMP or Intel Extreme Memory Profile to run at 2400MHz. Without it, the system defaults to JEDEC standard speeds (usually 2133MHz). The process is a single toggle on most consumer BIOS interfaces.
Yes — the SODIMM form factor is used in both laptops and compact SFF desktops (Intel NUC, various mini-ITX builds with SODIMM slots). If your SFF system uses SODIMM slots and runs a compatible Intel chipset, this module drops in identically to a laptop installation.
