Overview
A desktop tower with two free memory slots is where this matched kit goes. The modules are unbuffered U-DIMM sticks with an Intel XMP profile for rated speed and timings.
A matched pair gives dual channel operation with a stated speed and timing set. The listing names Intel and AMD desktops, but the XMP profile is an Intel feature, so AMD boards may need a manual setting.
Who it's for
Builders and upgraders with desktop motherboards that accept this generation. Laptop users and workstation buyers need other modules.
Pros and cons
- Matched pair for dual channel
- XMP profile for rated speed

Performance notes
A matched pair runs in dual channel, and the XMP profile lets a compatible board apply its ratings instead of a slower default setting. Latency figures show how many clock cycles the memory waits. Results depend on the motherboard and processor.
