Ripjaws X Dual-Channel Kit

This G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series kit provides 4GB of DDR3 desktop memory in a matched 2 x 2GB configuration. It is built for dual-channel platforms and targets users upgrading or maintaining systems based on Intel LGA1155, LGA1156 or AMD AM3, Llano and AM3+ sockets. The modules run at 1600MHz with CL9 9-9-9-24 timings.

Build Integration and Compatibility

The unbuffered, non-ECC DIMMs install directly into standard DDR3 slots without registration overhead. Intel XMP profiles simplify setup on 1st, 2nd and 3rd Generation Intel Core processors. Red heat spreaders sit on each module, leaving the top clear for most CPU cooler arrangements. Dual-channel architecture doubles bandwidth across the memory controller.

Thermals, Noise and Power Draw

Each module operates at a rated 1.50V, reducing electrical load compared to higher-voltage DDR3 kits. The integrated heat spreader dissipates thermal energy passively, adding no moving parts or acoustic signature. Modules are 100% tested for stability at the rated 1600MHz speed. Power consumption scales with the low 1.5V operating point.

Questions about this item

Will this 2×2 GB DDR3 1600 kit run in dual-channel on an Intel LGA1155 motherboard?

Yes, the kit is a matched dual-channel pair tested for Intel LGA1155 and LGA1156 platforms at 1600 MHz with CL9 timing.

Does the 1.50 V operating voltage need a BIOS change on a standard desktop board?

No, 1.50 V is the standard DDR3 voltage so the modules will boot at rated speed without a voltage adjustment.

What does the 9-9-9-24 timing mean for real-world responsiveness?

The CL9 primary latency and 24-cycle tRAS give low access delay at 1600 MHz, keeping everyday tasks and gaming smooth.
