Ripjaws V Series 16GB Kit

This 16GB kit contains two matched 8GB DDR4 modules rated at 3600 MT/s with CL18 timing. It targets builders and upgraders who want reliable dual-channel performance on mainstream desktop platforms without manual tuning.

Dual Channel 3600 MT/s Headroom

The kit runs at 1.35V with 18-22-22-42 timings, delivering smooth throughput for gaming, editing and rendering workloads. Headroom narrows when workloads demand sustained bandwidth beyond the rated frequency or tighter latencies than CL18 allows.

Intel XMP 2.0 Profile Support

A single BIOS toggle loads the validated XMP 2.0 profile, setting frequency, timings and voltage automatically. Compatibility is verified across the listed Intel Z790, Z690, Z590, Z490, Z390 and Z370 chipsets plus AMD X570 and B550 platforms.

Questions about this item

Will the 42 mm module height clear a large CPU cooler I already own?

The Ripjaws V sticks measure 42 mm tall, a dimension chosen to fit under most oversized air coolers without interference.

How can I confirm the kit is running at its rated 3600 MT/s and CL18 timings after installation?

Enable the Intel XMP 2.0 profile in the motherboard BIOS, then verify the operating frequency and 18-22-22-42 timings with a tool such as CPU-Z.

Does the package contain only the two 8 GB modules or are extra accessories included?

The box holds the matched 16 GB dual-channel kit (2 × 8 GB) with black aluminum heatspreaders; no additional cables, screws or software are supplied.
