Ripjaws X DDR3 1600 4GB Module

This G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series module provides 4GB of DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) memory for desktop systems. It operates at CL9 with 9-9-9-24 timings and 1.50V. An aluminum heat spreader aids cooling during sustained workloads.

Suits Legacy Intel And AMD Platforms

The stick targets enthusiasts and overclockers running Intel LGA1150, LGA1155 or LGA1156 sockets, plus compatible AMD APU and AM3+ builds. Intel XMP profiles simplify configuration on supported 1st through 4th Generation Core CPUs. Builders needing ECC, registered DIMMs or capacities above 4GB should select a different product.

Single 4GB Unbuffered DIMM

This is a single unbuffered non-ECC DIMM rated for 12.8Gbps bandwidth per channel at DDR3 1600. The 4GB capacity and CL9 latency define whether it matches the slot count and performance target of the intended system.

Questions about this item

Will this module fit a motherboard with an Intel LGA1155 socket?

Yes, the specifications list compatibility with Intel LGA1155 platforms among others, and the module uses standard DDR3 DIMM form factor.

Does the rated 1600 MHz speed require a manual BIOS change or XMP?

The module supports Intel XMP profiles for automatic configuration on compatible 1st to 4th Generation Core processors; otherwise the speed can be set manually in BIOS.

Is the 1.50 V operating voltage safe for standard desktop boards?

1.50 V is the standard JEDEC voltage for DDR3, so it works with any desktop motherboard that supports DDR3 memory without special voltage requirements.
