16GB DDR5 5600 module for desktop builds

This 16GB DDR5 5600 (PC5 44800) DIMM runs at 1.10V with CL46 latency and 46-45-45 timings. It is an unbuffered, non-ECC stick without a heat spreader. The module supports Intel XMP 3.0 profiles for automatic configuration. It targets builders upgrading AMD or Intel platforms that accept DDR5 memory.

Tool-less DIMM installation with DDR5 keying

The stick installs by aligning the DDR5 notch with the motherboard slot and pressing down until the retention clips engage. No screws or cables are required. Because this is a bare module without a heat spreader, avoid touching the gold contacts and handle the PCB by its edges. Do not force the module if the notch position does not match the slot.

Verify DDR5 motherboard support and XMP readiness

Confirm your motherboard lists DDR5 5600 support for unbuffered, non-ECC UDIMMs and that the BIOS is updated for Intel XMP 3.0 or AMD EXPO compatibility. Check the qualified vendor list for 16GB single-rank modules with 46-45-45 timings. Ensure the CPU memory controller officially supports 5600 MT/s operation at 1.10V before ordering.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the module is running at 5600 MT/s with CL46 timing after installation?

Open the BIOS or a tool such as CPU-Z and verify the reported speed shows 5600 MT/s and the timings read 46-45-45 at 1.10 V.

What does the retail package contain and is any extra hardware required?

The box holds one 16 GB DDR5 UDIMM; no heat spreader, cables or screws are included and none are needed for a standard DIMM slot.

Which version of this Kingston DDR5 line should I pick for a 16 GB upgrade?

KVR56U46BS8-16 is the sole 16 GB 5600 CL46 model in this series; select it when you need a single 16 GB stick at that speed and latency.
