I'm really interested on buying a 1x16GB DDR3 SODIMM module because my laptop has only one memory slot. I know that DIMM modules with 16GB do exist. But I can find only packs with two 8GB modules of SODIMM. So, where can I find such a module if it exists ?
The laptop I want to upgrade is an Asus UX32VD with 2GB of DDR3 memory on mother board (can't change it), and 1 slot. I upgraded it to 10GB (2+8).
Answer
Yes, they only recently did.
However, if you are using an Intel processor from 2013 or earlier then you may not be able to utilize 16GB sodimms.
The only exception is the Atom C2xxx series Avoton.
The i3, i5, i7 Sandybridge, Ivybridge, Haswell processors all can take only 8GB UDIMMs or SO-DIMMs.
Not sure about the latest generation of Intel processors though.
On AMD platforms, the Intelligent Memory 16GB modules are said to work fine.
