FAQ
What is the capacity and configuration of this Kingston memory module?
This Kingston FURY Impact module provides 16GB of DDR5 memory in a single module configuration (1 x 16GB). The single-module design allows for straightforward installation in compatible notebook systems that support 16GB modules, providing substantial memory for multitasking and demanding applications without requiring multiple module installations.
What speed and latency does this DDR5 memory operate at?
This memory module operates at 4800MHz with CL38 CAS latency. The 4800MHz speed represents the data transfer rate, while CL38 indicates the number of clock cycles for column access strobe latency. This combination provides high bandwidth with responsive timing for gaming, content creation, and productivity applications on compatible notebook platforms.
Is this memory ECC or non-ECC, and what does that mean for my system?
This is a non-ECC unbuffered memory module. Non-ECC (Error-Correcting Code) memory does not include error correction capabilities, which is standard for consumer and gaming systems. Unbuffered design means the memory controller communicates directly with the memory chips without an intermediate buffer, providing lower latency and straightforward compatibility with consumer notebook platforms.
What form factor and pin count does this memory module use?
This module uses the SODIMM (Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module) form factor with a 262-pin configuration. SODIMM is the standard form factor for notebook and small form factor systems. The 262-pin design is specific to DDR5 SODIMM modules, ensuring physical and electrical compatibility with notebook memory slots designed for DDR5 technology.
