Ripjaws V 16 GB DDR4 kit

This Ripjaws V Series kit provides 16 GB of DDR4 memory in a matched dual-channel pair of 8 GB modules. It is built for desktop builders who want a straightforward upgrade or a new performance system without tuning individual sticks. The aluminum heatspreader keeps the modules running cool inside standard tower cases.

DDR4 3000 CL16 capacity and headroom

Rated at DDR4 3000 with timings of 16-18-18-38 at 1.35 V, the kit delivers quick transfer speeds for gaming, video editing and rendering workloads. The 16 GB total suits mainstream multitasking and current titles; heavier production work or large virtual-machine sets will exhaust the available memory. XMP 2.0 lets the platform apply the rated profile with a single BIOS selection.

42 mm heatspreader and XMP 2.0

The low 42 mm module height clears most oversized CPU coolers, so builders do not need to choose between memory and cooling performance. Intel XMP 2.0 support stores the validated frequency and timing profile on the SPD, removing manual configuration steps. Kits are sold as matched pairs; mixing this set with other modules is not validated and can prevent the rated speed from being reached.

Questions about this item

Will the 42 mm Ripjaws V modules clear the large CPU cooler I already own?

The 42 mm module height is designed for compatibility with most oversized CPU heatsinks, so your existing cooler should fit without interference.

How can I verify the kit is running at its rated DDR4 3000 CL16 16-18-18-38 1.35 V after I enable XMP 2.0?

Enter the BIOS or use a tool such as CPU-Z; the memory tab should show 3000 MT/s, timings 16-18-18-38 and 1.35 V when the Intel XMP 2.0 profile is active.

Does the dual-channel 16 GB kit include only the two 8 GB sticks or are extra accessories supplied?

The box contains the matched pair of 8 GB DDR4 modules with red aluminum heatspreaders; no cables, screws or additional components are included.
