16GB DDR4 2400MHz Desktop Memory

This Crucial CT16G4DFD824A module provides 16GB of DDR4 desktop memory at 2400MHz with CL17 latency. It runs at 1.2V as an unbuffered, non-ECC DIMM with 288 pins. The module supports Intel XMP 2.0 profiles for automatic configuration. Dual-ranked x8 organisation helps deliver up to 32% more bandwidth and 40% lower power draw than DDR3.

Suits mainstream desktops needing capacity over

Systems built for everyday productivity, light content creation or entry-level gaming will benefit from the 16GB capacity and standard 2400MHz data rate. Builds that require ECC error correction, registered modules or speeds above 2400MHz should consider other kits. The lack of a heat spreader keeps the profile low for tight CPU cooler clearance.

Steady throughput under sustained workloads

Rated timings of 11-11-11-36 and a tRAC of 30ns provide predictable latency during long sessions. The 1.2V operating voltage limits thermal output when the memory runs continuously at full load. Bandwidth gains of up to 32% over DDR3 remain consistent across extended file transfers, rendering or virtual machine use.

Questions about this item

Will this 288-pin DIMM fit a motherboard that only has DDR3 slots?

No, DDR4 modules are physically keyed differently from DDR3 and will not seat in a DDR3 socket.

My board supports 2400 MHz but defaults to 2133 MHz — do I need to enable anything in BIOS?

Yes, activate the Intel XMP 2.0 profile to run at the rated 2400 MHz CL17 timing.

Is this module compatible with a four-channel kit for 64 GB total capacity?

It is an unbuffered non-ECC DIMM, so four identical sticks can populate a quad-channel platform up to 64 GB.
