Does your computer slow down when you open too many tabs or start a demanding game? Often, the answer is not enough memory. This RAM is a DIMM memory module made for PCs and servers, giving your system the space it needs to run smoothly. Your games, editing tools and everyday apps load faster, so you spend less time waiting.
Usages of a 16GB RAM
A typical day might start with emails, then move on to photo editing, video calls and several browser windows. With 16GB of memory, all of these can stay open together without the screen freezing. In the evening, the same memory keeps your game running steadily while friends join you online.
Benefits of Kingston RAM
- Smoother multitasking: Keep many apps open at once without your computer slowing to a crawl.
- Reliable performance: On-die ECC helps keep your data accurate during long sessions.
- Faster data handling: Extra banks and a longer burst length help your programs run more efficiently.
- Simpler overclocking: Intel XMP 3.0 and AMD EXPO profiles give you ready-made settings, so you spend less time guessing.
- Confident upgrades: Qualified by leading motherboard makers, so it is easier to find a match for your build.
Why Kingston RAM Beats a Basic Choice
Basic memory can seem like a saving at first, but it may leave you with less stability and fewer ways to tune your system. Kingston gives you support for both Intel XMP 3.0 and AMD EXPO, along with error correction that helps keep your data steady under heavy load.
That means you can upgrade with less guesswork and more confidence. You also get a low-profile heat spreader in black or white, so your upgrade looks as sharp as it performs.
Key Features of the 16GB RAM
- Internal memory: 16 GB. This gives you plenty of room for games, creative projects and multitasking.
- Memory data transfer rate: 5200 MT/s. Data moves quickly, so your system responds with less lag.
- Memory clock speed: 2600 MHz. This sets the pace at which the memory works with your processor.
- CAS latency: 36. A lower number means faster response times, and this value helps you judge speed.
- Memory voltage: 1.25 V. This low power level keeps the module efficient in daily use.
- Memory form factor: 288-pin DIMM. This is the standard slot type used in desktop PCs and servers.
- Module configuration: 2048M x 64. This layout describes how the memory chips are organised on the module.
- Operating temperature: 0 - 85 °C. The module handles a wide range of working temperatures.
- Weight: 34.34 g. The module is light, so it is easy to handle when installing.
- On-Die ECC: Yes. Built-in error correction helps protect your data during intense workloads.
