16GB DDR3 Kit for Gigabyte Z68 Boards

This 16GB kit contains two 8GB unbuffered DIMMs rated at DDR3 1600 with CL11 timing and 1.5V operation. It is built for Gigabyte GA-Z68AP-D3 and GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3 motherboards that accept 240-pin non-ECC memory. The modules use major-brand chips in a 2Rx8 configuration without heat spreaders.

Upgrade from 10600 or 8500 modules

The board supports 1066, 1333 and 1600MHz speeds, so this 12800-rated kit replaces slower 10600 or 8500 memory when the platform can run at the higher data rate. The jump is worthwhile when the CPU and chipset officially support 1600MHz and the BIOS is configured for the faster timing. Buyers limited to 1333MHz by processor specification will not see the rated speed.

Dual-channel pair for four-slot boards

The two sticks populate a pair of slots for dual-channel bandwidth on boards with four DIMM sockets and a 32GB maximum capacity. Unbuffered non-ECC design matches the desktop chipset requirements listed for the compatible models. Systems needing ECC, registered modules or capacities beyond 32GB cannot use this kit.

Questions about this item

Does this kit use 240-pin DDR3 DIMMs that fit the four slots on my Gigabyte GA-Z68AP-D3 or GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3?

Yes, both modules are 240-pin DDR3 DIMMs and the board has four slots supporting up to 32 GB total.

Do I need to enable any BIOS profile or can I just insert the two sticks and boot?

Insert the two sticks into the same-colour slots for dual-channel operation; the board will default to 1333 MHz unless you manually select 1600 MHz in BIOS.

If a module fails years from now, what replacement process applies?

Computer Memory Solutions provides a limited lifetime warranty for exchange when purchased directly from them.
