Know before you buy
This module is compatible with most DDR4-based motherboards for both Intel and AMD systems. Since it is a 288-pin DIMM, ensure your motherboard has an available DDR4 slot before purchasing.
The module features Plug and Play functionality, which often allows it to reach its rated speed automatically. If your system does not detect the full speed, you can easily enable the Intel XMP profile in your BIOS settings.
Yes. The low-profile heat spreader stands at only 1.34 inches tall, making it an excellent choice for compact builds where space around the CPU cooler is limited.
While it may work, mixing different brands or speeds can lead to stability issues or force the system to run at the speed of the slowest module. For the best performance, it is recommended to use identical modules.
This is non-ECC memory. It is designed for standard desktop gaming and content creation systems rather than professional workstations or servers that require Error Correction Code memory.
A CAS latency of CL16 provides a good balance between speed and responsiveness. It ensures the memory can access data quickly, which helps reduce system lag during intensive tasks like video editing or gaming.
