Gateway DX4870 Memory Upgrade

This kit provides two 4 GB DDR3 DIMMs that run at 1333 MHz with CL9 timing and 1.5 V operation. The unbuffered, non-ECC modules use a 240-pin layout and are built with major-brand chips. They are validated for the Gateway DX desktop models DX4870-UB17 and DX4870-UR1A.

Owners of the listed Gateway desktops

This kit suits owners of the listed Gateway desktops who want to populate two of the four slots with a matched 8 GB pair. Buyers whose systems require ECC or registered memory should look elsewhere. The modules lack a heat spreader, so builds that demand active cooling on the RAM are not a fit.

System maximum of 16 GB

The platform supports a maximum of 16 GB across its four slots, so this 8 GB kit leaves room for another identical pair later. Installing the sticks in the correct channels enables dual-channel operation at the rated 1333 MHz speed.
