SAMSUNG MR16R1624EG0-CT9 128MB PC1066 RDRAM desktop RAM

SKU CH-JQND-KPTQ5 MPN MR16R1624EG0-CT9

128 MB RDRAM RIMM module runs at 1066 MHz with 32 ns access time and aluminium heatsinks

  • 128 MB capacity expands system memory for demanding tasks
  • PC1066 standard delivers 1066 MHz data rate on a 533 MHz front-side bus
  • 184-pin RIMM module with aluminium heatsinks improves thermal performance
  • Non-ECC design with 32 ns access speed ensures responsive operation
  • 16-bit Rambus architecture maintains backward compatibility with MR16R1624DF0-CT9

128MB PC1066 RDRAM module

This 128MB RIMM module uses Rambus RDRAM technology and runs at a 1066MHz data rate on a 533MHz front-side bus. It targets owners of legacy desktop systems that require PC1066 memory for maintenance or period-correct builds. The 184-pin form factor and aluminium heatsinks match the original specification for this class of memory.

16-bit RDRAM interface constraints

The module operates on a 16-bit Rambus channel with a 32ns access speed and non-ECC error handling. Bandwidth is limited by the PC1066 standard and the single-channel architecture of compatible chipsets. Systems must provide the specific voltage and termination required by RDRAM; mismatched platforms will not boot or will run unstable.

128MB capacity for legacy workloads

A single 128MB device suits early Pentium 4-era operating systems and applications that fit within this footprint. Multitasking or later software quickly exhausts the available space, and adding further modules is restricted by the number of RIMM slots and the requirement to populate continuity modules in empty sockets. Expansion beyond this density requires higher-capacity RDRAM modules that may be scarce.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 128MB PC1066 RIMM or the earlier MR16R1624DF0-CT9?

Both are 128MB PC1066 RIMMs with aluminium heatsinks and 184 pins; the CT9 is the newer part number and is backwards compatible with the DF0, so the CT9 can replace the DF0 without change.

What does the 1066MHz figure mean once the module is installed?

The module runs at 1066MHz on a 533MHz FSB, delivering 16-bit Rambus RDRAM transfers with a 32ns access speed for desktop systems that support PC1066 RIMMs.

What interface does the 184-pin RIMM use and what does it cap?

It uses the Rambus RDRAM RIMM interface at PC1066, capping the data rate at 1066MHz on a 533MHz front-side bus with 16-bit wide transfers.
