8GB DDR4 2133MHz desktop module

This single 8GB DDR4 module runs at 2133MHz with CL15 latency and 1.2V operation. It uses a 288-pin unbuffered UDIMM form factor without ECC or a heat spreader. The part is designed for desktop PCs, workstations and NAS systems needing a straightforward memory increase.

Simple DIY installation

Installation is a standard DIMM insertion that requires no tools beyond opening the case. Align the notch with the slot key, press firmly until the retention clips click, then power on. The most common issue is the module not seating fully, which causes the system to fail POST or show no new capacity.

DDR4 2133MHz practical limits

The JEDEC PC4-17000 standard caps this module at 2133MHz and CL15 timings at 1.2V. It will not run faster without manual overclocking, which the JEDEC profile does not guarantee. Mixed speeds in the same system will default all modules to the slowest installed rate.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the 8GB DDR4 2133MHz module is running at CL15 after installation?

Open Task Manager or BIOS and verify the memory speed shows 2133 MHz with CAS latency 15; the SPD will report PC4-17000 timings automatically.

What ships with the OWC 2U1D42R808GB stick and what must I source separately?

The box contains one black 288-pin unbuffered UDIMM; no heat spreader, screws or tools are included, so have a Phillips screwdriver ready for the case.

Which capacity and speed variant should I pick for a desktop that supports PC4-17000?

Choose this single 8 GB DDR4 2133 MHz CL15 1.2 V module; it matches the PC4-17000 spec and fits any 288-pin desktop slot.
