8 GB DDR5 UDIMM running at 4800 MT/s with CL40 latency and 1.1 V operation
This 8GB DDR5 module is built for Kingston desktop systems that accept 4800MHz PC5-38400 unbuffered UDIMMs. It suits owners of compatible Kingston PCs who want a straightforward capacity increase without ECC or registered buffering. The single-rank 1Rx6 organisation and 1.10V operating voltage match the original Kingston KVR48U40BS6-8 specification. Buyers who need ECC error correction or higher capacities should look elsewhere.
The 288-pin DDR5 UDIMM slots into a standard desktop DIMM socket and requires no tools beyond opening the case. Alignment notches prevent backwards insertion, so the module seats in one direction only. Because the sticks have no heat spreader, they fit tight spaces but offer no extra thermal margin under sustained load. Common issues arise when the motherboard BIOS does not yet support the 4800MHz JEDEC profile, causing the system to fall back to a lower speed.
The module runs at DDR5 4800 with CL40 latency at 1.10V, which is the exact speed-grade the target Kingston platforms expect. If your board only qualifies slower DDR5 grades or demands a different voltage, this kit will not operate at its rated specification. Matching these three figures — 4800, CL40, 1.10V — to the motherboard memory-support list is the single check that confirms compatibility.
