Capacity and Platform

This 16GB DDR4 module targets desktop gaming and home office builds. It fits standard 288-pin UDIMM slots on mainstream Intel and AMD platforms. The single-stick design lets users add capacity one module at a time. RGB lighting runs along a black metal heat spreader.

Speed and Latency

Rated at 3600 MT/s with CL18-22-22 timings, the kit runs at 1.35V under an XMP 2.0 profile. JEDEC fallback operates at 2400 MT/s until the profile is enabled. The 45.75 ns tRAC figure reflects the access latency at the rated frequency. This combination decides whether the module matches a board's qualified-vendor list.

Sustained Load Behaviour

The metal heat spreader is designed to dissipate heat during long high-load sessions such as rendering or heavy multitasking. Stable operation at the XMP frequency relies on that thermal headroom rather than a short burst. Plug-and-play compatibility with gold-plated contacts supports consistent seating over repeated thermal cycles.

Questions about this item

What does the 3600 MT/s speed mean once the module is installed in a real machine?

The module runs at 2400 MT/s by default and reaches 3600 MT/s when the XMP 2.0 profile is enabled in the BIOS.

How does the XMP 2.0 interface affect the achievable frequency and voltage?

XMP 2.0 sets the module to 3600 MT/s at 1.35 V with CL18-22-22 timings in a single step.

What physical slot and clearance does the 288-pin UDIMM with RGB heat spreader need?

It fits a standard DDR4 DIMM slot and the metal heat spreader adds height, so check CPU cooler clearance.
