Technical Overview
This memory module adheres to the DDR4-2666 (PC4-21300) standard, providing a data transfer rate of 2666 million transfers per second. The CL19 timing specification indicates the number of clock cycles required to access a column of data, with lower numbers typically offering faster response, though CL19 is common for this speed grade in value-oriented modules.
The 4GB capacity is well-suited for basic multitasking, web browsing, office applications, and light media consumption. It operates at 1.20V, which is standard for DDR4 memory and helps minimize power consumption. The module is unbuffered, meaning it does not include a register between the memory controller and DRAM chips, which is typical for consumer and mainstream desktop systems.

FAQ
What is the capacity and technology of this Kingston memory module?
This Kingston ValueRAM module has a capacity of 4GB and uses DDR4 SDRAM technology. It operates at 2666 MHz under the DDR4-2666/PC4-21300 standard, providing improved bandwidth and power efficiency over older DDR3 memory for compatible desktop systems.
What form factor and pin count does this memory module use?
The module uses a DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module) form factor with 288 pins. This is the standard physical interface for desktop DDR4 memory, designed to fit into corresponding DIMM slots on compatible motherboards for secure installation and reliable connectivity.
Does this memory support ECC (Error-Correcting Code)?
No, this is a non-ECC memory module. It does not include error-correcting code functionality, which is typical for consumer and general-purpose desktop memory. Non-ECC modules are suitable for applications where absolute data integrity is not critical, such as everyday computing, office work, and casual use.
What is the CAS latency and operating voltage of this module?
The CAS latency is CL19, which indicates the delay in clock cycles for accessing data columns. The module operates at 1.20V, the standard voltage for DDR4 memory, helping reduce power consumption and heat generation compared to higher-voltage DDR3 modules, contributing to system stability and efficiency.
Is this memory module buffered or unbuffered?
This module is unbuffered, meaning it does not have a register between the memory controller and DRAM chips. Unbuffered memory is common in consumer desktops and workstations, offering direct communication for faster access in non-registered configurations, making it compatible with most mainstream motherboards.
What warranty and environmental certifications come with this Kingston memory?
Kingston provides a lifetime limited warranty for this module, covering defects in materials and workmanship.
