Kingston ValueRAM DDR 400 module

This Kingston ValueRAM module provides 256MB of DDR 400 desktop memory rated at PC 3200 speed. It operates with CL3 latency and 3-3-3 timings at 2.60V without a heat spreader. The stick is designed for standard DIMM slots in older systems.

Best for legacy DDR upgrades

Suits owners of desktop boards that accept DDR 400 DIMMs and need a small capacity increase for basic multitasking. Not for builders who need more storage than 256MB provides or who require faster speeds and lower voltages than this module delivers.

Fits older DDR 400 builds

Installs directly into a compatible DDR 400 motherboard slot with no extra power connectors or cooling required. Frees up the need to source used or unreliable memory when maintaining or repairing vintage desktop computers.

Questions about this item

Does my motherboard need a DDR 400 slot for this 256MB module?

This stick requires a desktop DDR socket rated for 400 MHz (PC3200) operation at 2.60 V.

Will the CL3 timing of this stick slow down my older CL2 modules?

The memory controller runs all installed modules at the slowest common timing, so existing CL2 memory will operate at CL3 alongside this module.

How can I confirm the module is running at DDR 400 after installation?

Check the BIOS memory summary or a tool such as CPU-Z; it should report 400 MHz (PC3200) with timings of 3-3-3 at 2.60 V.
