Micron Technology, Inc. 2GB DDR3-1600 CL11 1.5V UDIMM CXC

SKU CH-1C16-HY5MG

2GB DDR3-1600 desktop memory module with CL11 latency, 1.5V operation and 240-pin UDIMM form factor

  • Total capacity2 GB
  • Rated speedDDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
  • CAS latencyCL11
  • 2GB capacity for basic desktop tasks using a single 2GB module
  • DDR3-1600 speed rated at PC3-12800 for responsive data transfer
  • CL11 CAS latency keeps access times tight for everyday workloads
  • 5V standard voltage fits mainstream DDR3 motherboards without extra configuration
  • 240-pin UDIMM form factor installs directly into desktop DIMM slots

2 GB DDR3-1600 UDIMM for Desktop Upgrades

This module provides 2 GB of DDR3 memory rated at 1600 MT/s with a CAS latency of CL11. It uses a standard 240-pin unbuffered DIMM form factor and operates at 1.5 V. The single-rank design uses eight 256x8 chips and carries the CXC part code.

Suits older desktops needing a single 2 GB stick

Builders repairing or upgrading legacy DDR3 systems that accept PC3-12800 modules will find this a direct match. Systems requiring ECC, registered memory, higher capacities per slot, or a different DDR generation cannot use this module.

Deciding spec: DDR3-1600 CL11 at 1.5 V

The motherboard must support DDR3 at 1600 MT/s with CL11 timing and 1.5 V unbuffered DIMMs. If the platform requires a different speed, voltage, or memory type, this module will not function.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the single 2 GB module or add a second stick for dual-channel?

Each stick is a single-rank 1Rx8 module; installing two identical sticks lets the memory controller run in dual-channel mode and doubles peak bandwidth.

What does the DDR3-1600 CL11 rating deliver in everyday use?

The module runs at 1600 MT/s with a CAS latency of 11 cycles, giving a theoretical peak transfer rate of 12 800 MB/s for typical desktop workloads.

Will the 240-pin DDR3 interface fit my motherboard and what speed does it cap at?

The 240-pin UDIMM fits standard DDR3 desktop slots and is rated for DDR3-1600; the system will automatically run it at the highest speed the board supports up to that limit.
