Ballistix Elite BLE2K8G4D36BEEAK 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3600 CL16 desktop RAM

SKU CH-CEXM-HPKKZ MPN BLE2K8G4D36BEEAK

A 16 GB dual-channel DDR4 kit running at 3600 MT/s with CL16 timings and a black heat spreader for thermal monitoring

  • Total capacity16 GB (2 × 8 GB)
  • Rated speedDDR4 3600 (PC4 28800)
  • CAS latencyCL16
  • Memory timings16-18-18
  • Rated voltage1.35 V

  • Ballistix M.O.D. Utility with thermal sensor enables real-time temperature monitoring

Ballistix Elite DDR4 3600 Kit

This 16 GB kit contains two 8 GB unbuffered DIMMs rated for DDR4 3600 operation. It targets desktop builders who need high memory bandwidth for gaming or content creation. The black heat spreader aids thermal performance during sustained workloads.

DDR4 3600 practical limits

DDR4 3600 runs at 1.35 V with CL16 16-18-18 timings and requires a motherboard that can sustain the data rate. XMP 2.0 profiles simplify configuration on compatible platforms. Stability depends on the memory controller and BIOS support for the rated speed.

CL16 at 3600 MT/s decides fit

The CAS latency of CL16 at 3600 MT/s is the key specification that determines whether this kit matches your performance target. Lower latency at this frequency reduces memory-bound bottlenecks in latency-sensitive applications. Verify that your CPU and motherboard support the rated timing before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will this kit run at its rated 3600 MT/s speed on my Ryzen system?

The kit is AMD Ryzen Ready and includes XMP 2.0 profiles; enable the profile in your motherboard BIOS to reach the rated 3600 MT/s speed with 16-18-18 timings at 1.35 V.

Does the 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) kit leave room for a future upgrade on a four-slot board?

Two 8 GB modules occupy only two DIMM slots, leaving the other two slots free for adding another matched kit later without removing the original sticks.

Can I monitor the module temperatures while gaming?

Yes, the Ballistix M.O.D. Utility reads the on-board thermal sensor in real time so you can track memory temperatures during heavy workloads.
