Crucial CT16G4DFRA32A 16GB DDR4 3200 desktop RAM

16GB DDR4 3200 UDIMM

This 16GB DDR4 3200 UDIMM module runs at 1.20V with CL22 timings. It targets desktop owners who want a straightforward capacity increase without extra software tuning. The green PCB has no heat spreader, keeping the profile low for tight CPU cooler clearances. Intel XMP 2.0 support allows a single-click speed set-up on compatible boards.

Upgrade from slower DDR4

Replacing 2666MT/s or 2933MT/s DDR4 with this 3200MT/s kit can raise bandwidth by up to 32% and cut power draw by up to 40%. The module will downclock automatically if the platform only supports 2933MT/s or 2666MT/s, so the jump is worth it whenever the CPU and chipset officially list 3200MT/s. Micron backs the ICs with 42 years of memory expertise and module-level testing.

Tool-free DIMM slot install

Installation is a standard tool-free press into any 288-pin DDR4 UDIMM slot until the retention clips click. The most common issue is the motherboard defaulting to 2666MT/s or 2933MT/s until XMP is enabled in the BIOS. A second frequent issue occurs when mixing this stick with older modules that have different CAS latencies, which can prevent the system from posting at the rated speed.
