Compatible DDR3 kit for Gigabyte boards

This 16 GB kit contains two 8 GB unbuffered DIMMs built to run at 1600 MHz with CL11 timings at 1.5 V. Computer Memory Solutions validates each module against the listed Gigabyte motherboards so the memory installs and posts without further configuration.

Builders upgrading the named Gigabyte models

The kit fits Gigabyte GA-A75M-S2V, GA-A75M-HD3, GA-B75N and GA-B85-D3V boards that accept non-ECC DDR3 DIMMs. Systems that need ECC, registered modules, a different pin count, or a higher total capacity than 16 GB cannot use these sticks.

16 GB total capacity in a matched pair

Two 8 GB sticks deliver the full 16 GB supported by the compatible motherboards. Buyers whose boards are limited to 8 GB maximum or who require a single 16 GB module should choose a different kit.

Questions about this item

Will the 240-pin DDR3 modules fit my Gigabyte GA-A75M-S2V motherboard?

Yes, the 240-pin DDR3 DIMMs are designed for the GA-A75M-S2V, GA-A75M-HD3, GA-B75N and GA-B85-D3V boards that use standard DDR3 slots.

Do I need to enable XMP in the BIOS for the 1600 MHz speed, or will it run at 1600 MHz automatically?

The kit runs at 1600 MHz (PC3-12800) at the standard 1.5 V JEDEC profile, so no XMP or manual tuning is required.

Since there is no heat spreader, will the 2Rx8 chips need extra airflow in a compact case?

The unbuffered 2Rx8 modules operate at 1.5 V without a spreader; standard case airflow is usually sufficient, but ensure the CPU cooler does not block the DIMM slots.
