Know before you buy
No, this is a SODIMM kit, which is specifically designed for laptops and small-form-factor (SFF) PCs. Standard desktop motherboards require larger DIMM modules.
Not necessarily. This kit supports automatic speed optimization, meaning it will typically detect and run at the maximum supported speed for your system upon installation.
Yes, the VENGEANCE Series DDR4 SODIMM kit is designed for broad compatibility with both Intel and AMD platforms that support DDR4 memory.
No, this memory operates at a standard 1.2V and does not require a heat spreader. It is designed to run efficiently within the thermal constraints of compact laptop and SFF chassis.
CL18 refers to the CAS latency, which is the delay between the memory receiving a command and executing it. Combined with the 3000MHz speed, this provides a responsive balance for smooth multitasking and demanding applications.
No, this memory is unbuffered and does not support ECC. It is intended for standard consumer laptops and small-form-factor PCs rather than server or workstation environments.
