Kit composition and purpose

This G.SKILL Value kit provides 8GB of DDR3 memory in a matched pair of 4GB modules. It is rated at 1600 speed with CL11 timings of 11-11-11-28 and runs at 1.5V. The kit targets owners of older Intel LGA1155 or LGA1156 systems and AMD AM3, AM3+ or APU platforms who need a simple capacity increase.

Compatibility guidance

Builders with those listed socket types can install the modules and expect plug-and-play operation without BIOS changes. The dual-channel configuration helps bandwidth on supported boards. Systems that require registered or ECC memory cannot use this unbuffered non-ECC kit, and any platform limited to a different DDR generation will not accept the modules.

What the bundle changes

Supplying two identical modules lets the memory controller run in dual-channel mode, which can raise usable bandwidth toward the rated 12.8GBps per channel figure. Because the kit is validated as a pair, the risk of timing mismatches between sticks is removed, so the CL11 11-11-11-28 profile should apply immediately on compatible hardware.

Questions about this item

Does my motherboard need a specific DDR3 slot to accept this 1600MHz CL11 kit?

Any standard DDR3 DIMM slot will accept the modules; the kit runs at 1.50V and uses unbuffered, non-ECC chips.

Will this dual-channel kit run at its rated 1600MHz on an older Intel LGA1156 board?

The kit is validated for LGA1155 and LGA1156 platforms and will operate at DDR3 1600 with 11-11-11-28 timings without BIOS changes.

How can I confirm the memory is running at the advertised 12.8GBps bandwidth?

Check the memory tab in CPU-Z or the BIOS SPD readout; it should show 1600MHz, CL11 and dual-channel mode active.
