Crucial CT2K51264BD160B 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3L 1600 desktop RAM

SKU CH-8WJG-2XW7J MPN CT2K51264BD160B

8GB dual-channel DDR3L kit running at 1600 MT/s with CL11 latency and 1.35V operation

  • Capacity8GB (2 x 4GB)
  • SpeedDDR3L 1600 (PC3L 12800)
  • CAS LatencyCL11
  • Voltage1.35V
  • ECCNo
  • Buffered/RegisteredUnbuffered

Capacity 8GB (2 x 4GB)

  • 8GB dual-channel kit doubles bandwidth for smoother multitasking
  • DDR3L 1600 MT/s speed delivers up to 12.8GB/s throughput per channel
  • Low 1.35V operation reduces power draw and heat output
  • CL11 latency keeps response times tight for everyday workloads
  • Built on 35 years of Micron engineering for proven reliability

Capacity and fit

This kit provides eight gigabytes in two four-gigabyte DDR3L modules rated at 1600 MT/s with CL11 latency. It is an unbuffered, non-ECC dual-channel set built to the standard UDIMM layout for desktop systems.

Before ordering

Verify that your motherboard accepts DDR3L UDIMM modules and can run at 1.35 volts or the supported 1.5 volt alternative. Check that two adjacent slots are free for the dual-channel pair and that the board’s memory controller supports 1600 MT/s operation.

Thermals and power

The low 1.35 volt operating voltage reduces power draw compared with standard DDR3 and keeps module temperatures modest under normal desktop workloads. Passive cooling on the green PCB is sufficient for typical use and the kit runs silently without active fans.

Questions about this item

What comes in the CT2K51264BD160B box and is anything else required?

The kit contains two 4GB DDR3L UDIMM modules for a total of 8GB. No extra parts are needed; install both sticks into matching motherboard slots to run dual channel.

How do I decide between this 8GB dual-channel kit and a single 8GB stick?

Choose the CT2K51264BD160B when your board has two or four slots and you want the 12.8GB/s dual-channel bandwidth. Pick a single module only if you must leave one slot free for a later upgrade.

What does the 1600 MT/s rating mean once the RAM is installed?

The modules transfer data at up to 1600 MT/s with CL11 latency at 1.35V, delivering up to 12.8GB/s per channel. They also support 1.5V operation if the platform requires it.
