FAQ's
What systems are compatible with the HX318C10FBK2/8 memory kit? This kit is compatible with desktop systems that support DDR3 240-pin DIMM memory running at PC3-14900 (1866MHz) speeds. Compatibility depends on the motherboard and processor supporting DDR3-1866 modules. What does PC3-14900 indicate for this Kingston memory? PC3-14900 refers to the DDR3 memory speed rating of 1866MHz, indicating the data transfer rate and bandwidth the module supports. How does the 240-pin specification affect installation? The 240-pin design means this memory fits standard DDR3 DIMM slots on compatible desktop motherboards. It cannot be used in slots designed for other memory types. Can HX318C10FBK2/8 modules be used separately? While each 4GB module can operate individually, they are sold as a kit optimized for dual-channel configurations to maximize performance. What is the CAS latency of this memory kit? The CAS latency for the HX318C10FBK2/8 kit is 10, which specifies the delay time between the memory controller requesting data and the data being available. Is this memory kit suitable for laptops? No, this kit uses 240-pin DIMMs intended for desktop systems, not the smaller SO-DIMM modules used in laptops.
