8GB DDR3 1600MHz unbuffered DIMM with CL11 timing and 1.5V operation for compatible systems
This 240-pin DIMM delivers 8GB of DDR3 memory at 1600MHz with CL11 timings and 1.5V operation. It is an unbuffered, non-ECC module built with a 2Rx8 configuration using major brand chipsets. The single stick suits desktops or workstations that accept DDR3 long DIMMs.
DDR3 tops out at the 1600MHz speed and 1.5V voltage this module uses, so the system bus and memory controller set the practical limit. All installed sticks will run at the speed of the slowest module or the processor's maximum supported rate. A 64-bit operating system is required to address more than 4GB of total memory.
One 8GB module leaves dual-channel performance on the table because matched pairs are needed to activate that mode. Buyers who want the bandwidth gain of dual-channel should purchase two identical sticks instead of a single unit.

The module is sold as a single 8 GB stick; installing two identical modules in matched slots lets the memory controller run in dual-channel mode, which typically raises usable bandwidth.
The stick runs at DDR3-1600 with CAS 11 timings, giving a peak transfer rate of PC3-12800; actual throughput will match the slowest module or the CPU memory controller limit.
The 240-pin unbuffered DIMM fits standard desktop DDR3 slots, operates at 1.5 V, and will down-clock automatically if the platform only supports lower DDR3 speeds.
