HP Pavilion 500 DDR3 kit

This 16 GB kit contains two 8 GB unbuffered DIMMs built for the HP Pavilion 500-205t, 500-212la, 500-214d and 500-232d. It suits owners of those desktops who want to reach the board’s 16 GB ceiling without mixing modules.

DDR3-1600 bandwidth ceiling

The PC3-12800 interface tops out at 1600 MT/s, so the memory bus cannot feed data faster than that rate. Builders who need higher throughput must choose a platform that supports a newer memory generation.

240-pin unbuffered layout

Each stick uses a standard 240-pin DDR3 edge connector and has no heat spreader, keeping the profile low for tight chassis clearances. The two-module pack fills both slots on boards limited to two DIMM sockets.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 2 x 8 GB kit or a single 16 GB stick for my HP Pavilion 500?

The kit supplies two 8 GB modules, filling both slots for dual-channel operation, while a single stick would leave one slot empty and halve bandwidth.

What does the 1600 MHz rating mean once the memory is installed in my Pavilion 500?

The modules run at 1600 MHz with CL11 timing at 1.5 V, delivering PC3-12800 throughput provided the motherboard supports that speed.

Does the 240-pin DDR3 interface limit the upgrade on my HP Pavilion 500-205t?

The 240-pin DDR3 DIMMs match the board’s native slots, so the only cap is the 16 GB maximum the system accepts.
