4GB DDR3 1600 Value Module

This G.SKILL Value module provides 4GB of DDR3 memory rated at 1600MHz with CL11 timings. It operates at a standard 1.50V and uses unbuffered, non-ECC architecture. The single DIMM is designed for straightforward desktop upgrades without requiring manual BIOS configuration.

Upgraders with compatible DDR3 platforms

The kit suits owners of older desktops using Intel LGA1155, LGA1156 or AMD AM3, AM3+ and APU sockets needing a basic capacity increase. It is not for systems that require ECC error correction or registered buffer technology. Buyers needing more than 4GB per slot or lower latency timings should consider other options.

DDR3 1600 CL11 specification

The memory runs at DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) with a tested timing cycle of 11-11-11-28. This speed and latency combination determines whether the module matches the motherboard's supported memory standard. Verify that the platform accepts 1.5V unbuffered DIMMs before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the module fit a standard 240-pin DDR3 desktop slot?

Yes, the 4GB stick uses the standard 240-pin DDR3 form factor and runs at 1.5V, matching regular desktop DIMM sockets.

Do I need to enable XMP or change BIOS settings to reach 1600 MHz CL11?

The module is plug-and-play; it operates at DDR3 1600 with 11-11-11-28 timings at 1.50V without any BIOS configuration.

How long will the memory chips and PCB last under normal use?

The unbuffered non-ECC DRAM uses standard 1.5V JEDEC voltage, so no special maintenance is required beyond keeping the system dust-free.
