Value (KVR16N11/8) RAM 8 GB 1600MHz DDR3 (PC3-12800) Non-ECC CL11 240 Pin DIMM Motherboard Memory

The product arrived very quickly, was exactly as promised, was fairly priced and works perfectly! I am very pleased with this purchase.

After much price comparison (and soul searching) I decided to upgrade my ASUS desktop computer's RAM: if you are serious about multicore CPUs (multicore CPUs offer potentially greater benefit than overclocking a single CPU core) then you provide ample RAM. I've had good experience with Kingston RAM upgrade earlier purchases, the Kingston website suggested this DIMM matched pair, and Kingston suggested upgrades had the lowest price. I bought this DIMM matched pair kit, I removed my single existing DIMM, and I installed the Kingston DIMM pair. Now I learn that my ASUS motherboard uses dual-channel RAM: it is good that I purchased matched DIMMs. DIMMs are static-sensitive; you must follow the rules. During the installation I wore non-static rubber-soled jogging shoes; I kept my knees pressed against the metal desk's walls; the desktop computer was completely unplugged; I wore a cheap anti-static wrist strap clipped to the desktop computer's chassis; and I installed the DIMMs gently (the DIMMs and the DIMM sockets are precision equipment; applying muscle here only creates problems). Before the installation I downloaded MemTest86 free software, I built a MemTest86 bootable CD-ROM, and I verified that my pre-existing RAM was faultless. After the Kingston DIMM installation I verified that the Kingston DIMMs were faultless. I also verified that Windows 8.1 recognizes my upgraded RAM. I know that my Kingston RAM upgrade was successful and beneficial.

Fast and realible

Good

I used this Kingston "Value RAM" to double my memory from 4GB to 8GB on a mainstream HP Windows desktop that came standard with 4GB of Kingston memory. Install was straightforward, and when I booted up the new memory was recognized immediately. Besides the additional RAM, I also now have a matched pair of memory sticks (2 X 4GB), and so I get increased memory bandwidth from this dual-channel configuration. Wow, my computer response really pops! I redid the "Windows Experience Index" evaluation, and subscore for Memory Operations per Second increased from 5.9 to 7.5. And since I'm using the integrated Intel HD 4400 graphics (which uses system memory), the subscore for Aero Graphics increased from 5.0 to 5.9. I'm a long-time Amazon customer, but was actually pointed to Amazon from the Kingston web site. I found the memory I wanted on the Kingston site, clicked the purchase button, and Amazon was one of the options--thank you Kingston & Amazon.

Ordered it in 2019. Now it is 2024 and it is still serving me well and working as expected. Not sure what else I can review a ram for.

I received his RAM Four or five days quicker than I expected. Installed easily and works exactly as it should. Great transaction!

I have a Windows 10 PC with 8 Gigs of Ram. As Windows has grown, and has the amount of memory that web pages take up, I found my PC swapping out a lot with the hard drive, and sometimes Chrome would lockup for minutes on end when I had lots of tabs open (not uncommon for me to have 20+ tabs open at once). Adding this memory into my Dell's second slot a couple of months ago, which doubled my RAM from 8 to 16G, has prevented such slowdowns from recurring. I haven't had any problem with this memory thus far and am extremely happy with the purchase.

Still working perfectly after 7 months of purchasing

Great product! works as expected! :)

Produto veio funcionando perfeitamente. Só paguei muito caro na época que comprei, mas agora o preço está em conta.

I used it in I7 3rd generation, its 1600 MHZ, before buying, check if your motherboard supports 1600 MHZ, probably you have to update bios as well. Some specific mother board supports 1600 with I7 3rd generation, not all so be careful. Regards, Mazhar

I was scared at first because when I saw the ram I went like ''What the hell... this is so thin. Did they send me the wrong ram?'' but fortunately it was the right ram. It fitted like a glove and it's definitely not like in the picture shown above. Here's what it looks like: [...] It's a low profile ram which some people might not like because it's not show-off enough, but when you think of it, if you want to install a aftermarket cpu cooler and need some space well tadah! you have some! P.S. didn't get to try it yet since I am waiting for a keyboard to go into the bios.
