Product identity

This Simmtec 8 GB kit contains four 2 GB DDR3-1600 modules rated at PC3-12800. It is built for desktop PCs that accept unbuffered non-ECC UDIMMs and need a straightforward capacity increase.

Suitability

The kit suits owners of older DDR3 platforms who want to fill four slots with matching sticks. Builders whose boards require ECC registered memory or who only have two free slots should look at something else.

Deciding specification

The 240-pin DDR3 interface running at 1.5 V is the single detail that determines whether the kit will fit the motherboard; slots for other DDR generations are physically incompatible.

Questions about this item

What DDR3 standard does the PC3-12800 rating represent and what speed does it run at?

The kit is rated PC3-12800, which corresponds to DDR3-1600 operation at 1600 MHz.

What physical slot and pin count do these modules need on the motherboard?

Each module is a 240-pin UDIMM designed for standard desktop DDR3 DIMM slots.

How are the four 2 GB sticks installed and what common mistake should be avoided?

Insert each stick firmly into a DDR3 slot until the side clips click; the frequent error is not pressing hard enough so the clips do not latch.
