AEGIS DDR3 1600 Dual-Channel Kit

This G.SKILL AEGIS kit provides 8 GB of DDR3 1600 memory in a matched 2 x 4 GB configuration. It targets builders upgrading or repairing Intel Core i7, i5, i3 and AMD AM3, Llano or AM3+ platforms that still rely on DDR3 technology.

Sustained Load Behaviour

Rated at CL11 with 11-11-11-28 timings and 1.50 V, the modules deliver up to 12.8 GB/s bandwidth per channel during extended sessions. The unbuffered design maintains stable throughput without registered overhead when the system runs continuously.

Upgrade Context

It replaces older DDR3 kits running at lower speeds or higher latencies on compatible motherboards. The jump is worthwhile when the board supports DDR3 1600 and the current memory limits multitasking or gaming responsiveness.

Questions about this item

Will the 1.50V voltage of this AEGIS kit require extra cooling if the PC runs all day?

The modules operate at the standard DDR3 1.50V, so they produce no more heat than typical DDR3 memory and do not need additional cooling beyond normal case airflow.

Does the motherboard need to support dual-channel architecture to use this 2 x 4GB kit?

The kit is a matched dual-channel pair; it will run in single-channel mode on a single-channel board, but both channels must be populated to get the rated 12.8GBps bandwidth per channel.

Can these DDR3 1600 CL11 modules be mixed with existing DDR3 1600 CL9 sticks already in the system?

Mixing different CAS latencies forces the motherboard to run all modules at the slower CL11 timing, so the CL9 sticks will drop to CL11 automatically.
