Premium 16GB DDR4 Kit with RGB

This 16GB kit comprises two 8GB modules built for desktop systems that take 288-pin DDR4 memory. Each stick runs at 3200 MT/s with a CL16 16-18-18-36 timing at 1.35V and includes an Intel XMP 2.0 profile for one-click setup. Anodized aluminum heatspreaders and DHX cooling keep temperatures low during sustained workloads.

Ideal for Enthusiast Builds — Skip if Budget-Focused

The kit suits builders who want high-frequency DDR4 with 12 addressable RGB LEDs per module controlled through iCUE software. It is validated for Intel 200, 300, 400 Series and X299 platforms as well as AMD 300, 400 Series and X570 chipsets. Users needing ECC, lower voltage, or a non-RGB aesthetic should consider other lines.

Deciding Spec: DDR4 3200 CL16 at 1.35V

The single figure that determines fit is the 3200 MT/s speed paired with CL16 latency at 1.35V. If your motherboard and CPU support this data rate and timing, the modules will run at rated performance via XMP 2.0. If the platform caps below 3200 or requires different voltage, choose a kit matched to those limits.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 16GB (2 x 8GB) kit or look for a different capacity?

The 16GB kit provides two 8GB modules for dual-channel operation on mainstream platforms.

What does the DDR4 3200 CL16 rating deliver in a real system?

It runs at 3200 MT/s with 16-18-18-36 timings at 1.35V, enabled by the Intel XMP 2.0 profile.

How does the 288-pin DDR4 interface limit performance?

The DDR4 standard caps the data rate at 3200 MT/s for this kit, so the XMP profile reaches the rated speed without exceeding the interface.
