OWC DDR3 1600 dual-channel kit

This kit provides eight gigabytes of DDR3 memory split across two four-gigabyte modules running at 1600 MT/s with CL11 latency at 1.5 volts. It is built for desktop and workstation boards that accept 240-pin unbuffered non-ECC DIMMs.

Sustained-load behaviour

JEDEC-standard timings and voltage keep the modules stable during long rendering, compilation or virtual-machine sessions without throttling. The dual-channel layout doubles peak bandwidth over a single stick, so throughput stays consistent when all slots are populated.

Installation notes

Align the notch on each 240-pin DIMM with the motherboard key and press firmly until the retention clips click; no heat spreader means low-profile coolers clear the modules easily. The most common issue is mixing these sticks with faster or lower-latency kits, which forces the board to run at the slowest common settings.

Questions about this item

Will this kit work in a desktop that takes 240-pin DDR3 DIMMs?

Yes, the kit uses standard 240-pin unbuffered DDR3 DIMMs rated at 1600 MHz CL11 and 1.5 V, matching the JEDEC PC3-12800 specification for desktop and workstation boards.

Is the memory compatible with a system that only supports non-ECC modules?

The modules are non-ECC, so they will work in any desktop or workstation that requires standard unbuffered DDR3 without error correction.

Can I install these two 4 GB sticks alongside existing DDR3 memory?

You can add the pair to empty slots, but for best stability all installed DIMMs should share the same speed, voltage and timing; mixing different CL values or voltages may force the system to run at the lowest common settings.
