SKU CH-MNFC-ZRV8F

16 GB dual-channel DDR3 kit running at 1600 MHz with CL9 latency and 1.5 V operation

  • Capacity16GB (2 x 8GB)
  • SpeedDDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
  • 16 GB dual-channel kit speeds up multitasking
  • 1600 MHz DDR3 bandwidth feeds data faster
  • CL9 9-9-9-24 timings cut latency delays
  • XMP ready profile applies optimal settings automatically
  • 5 V 240-pin DIMMs fit standard desktop slots

Kit purpose

This 16 GB DDR3 kit contains two 8 GB DIMMs built for desktop systems that use 240-pin memory slots. It targets builders upgrading older Intel or AMD platforms that require 1.5 V unbuffered non-ECC modules. The matched pair enables dual-channel operation on supported motherboards.

Deciding specification

The modules run at 1600 MHz with PC3-12800 bandwidth and 9-9-9-24 timings at the standard 1.5 V. XMP readiness allows the rated speed to be applied automatically on compatible firmware. This speed and latency combination is the single figure that determines whether the kit matches the board’s qualified-vendor list.

Thermals and power

Each stick draws 1.5 V with no additional cooling requirement beyond normal case airflow. The unbuffered non-ECC design keeps power draw low and produces no audible noise in typical desktop workloads. Standard-height construction fits most CPU coolers without clearance issues.

Questions about this item

What does 1600MHz mean for everyday use?

The kit runs at 1600MHz DDR3 with CL9 timing, giving 12800 MB/s peak bandwidth on Intel LGA 1155, 1156, 1366, 2011 and AMD FM1 platforms.

What limits does the DDR3 interface impose?

DDR3 tops out at 1.5V on this kit, so the memory controller and board must support that voltage; speeds above 1600MHz are not guaranteed.

Will the 240-pin DIMMs fit my board?

Each module is a 240-pin unbuffered non-ECC DIMM, so the motherboard needs standard DDR3 desktop slots and physical clearance for two sticks.
