HyperX blu is a bold step out of the ordinary and into the “serious reliability and awesome speeds” category. It’s ideal for the entry-level gamer or PC enthusiast who would rather not borrow money to get his or her system up to speed with the latest memory technology. Its streamlined clipless design and heatspreaders deliver seamless thermal performance for high-bandwidth games and high-speed applications. What’s more, it’s blue, so it looks really cool in your rig.

Kingston's KHX1600C10D3B1K2/16G is a kit of two 1G x 64-bit (8GB) DDR3-1600 CL10 SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM), 2Rx8 memory modules, based on sixteen 512M x 8-bit FBGA components per module. Total kit capacity is 16GB. Each module kit has been tested to run at DDR3-1600 at a low latency timing of 10-10-10 at 1.5V. The SPD's are programmed to JEDEC standard latency DDR3-1333 timing of 9-9-9 at 1.5V. Each 240-pin DIMM uses gold contact fingers. The JEDEC electrical and mechanical specifications are as follows:

JEDEC standard 1.5V (1.425V ~ 1.575V) Power Supply

VDDQ = 1.5V (1.425V ~ 1.575V)

667MHz fCK for 1333Mb/sec/pin

8 independent internal bank

Programmable CAS Latency: 9, 8, 7, 6

Programmable Additive Latency: 0, CL - 2, or CL - 1 clock

Programmable CAS Write Latency(CWL) = 7 (DDR3-1333) 8-bit pre-fetch

Burst Length: 8 (Interleave without any limit, sequential with starting address “000” only), 4 with tCCD = 4 which does not allow seamless read or write [either on the fly using A12 or MRS]

Bi-directional Differential Data Strobe

Internal(self) calibration : Internal self calibration through ZQ pin (RZQ : 240 ohm ± 1%)

On Die Termination using ODT pin

Average Refresh Period 7.8us at lower than TCASE 185°F, 3.9us at 185°F < TCASE < 203°F

Asynchronous Reset

PCB : Height 1.180” (30.00mm), double sided component

Shipping Note: Eligible for shipping to all 50 states
