Description
Product Overview
The Kingston KCP548US8-16 is a 16GB DDR5 SDRAM memory module that is designed to be used in workstation and desktop PCs. In this article, we will explain in detail what DDR5 SDRAM is, what the specifications of this memory module are, and what makes it suitable for use in workstations and desktop PCs.
DDR5 SDRAM
DDR5 SDRAM is the latest generation of synchronous dynamic random-access memory (SDRAM). It is an improvement over its predecessor, DDR4 SDRAM, in terms of speed and power efficiency. DDR5 SDRAM operates at a higher frequency and has a higher data transfer rate than DDR4 SDRAM. It also consumes less power, making it more energy-efficient.
DDR5 SDRAM is designed to meet the increasing demands of high-performance computing, such as gaming, video editing, and scientific simulations. It is also used in data centers, where large amounts of memory are needed to process large amounts of data.
Specifications of Kingston KCP548US8-16
The Kingston KCP548US8-16 is a 16GB DDR5 SDRAM memory module with a clock speed of 4800 MHz. It has a CAS latency of 40 and is a single-rank memory module. It is also a non-ECC unbuffered memory module, which means that it does not have error correction code (ECC) and does not use a buffer to improve performance.
Clock speed
The clock speed of a memory module is the speed at which it operates. It is measured in megahertz (MHz) and indicates how many cycles per second the memory module can perform. A higher clock speed means that the memory module can process data faster.
CAS latency
The CAS latency of a memory module is the delay between the time when the memory controller requests data from the memory module and the time when the data is available. It is measured in clock cycles and is an indication of the responsiveness of the memory module. A lower CAS latency means that the memory module can respond faster.
Rank
A rank is a set of memory chips that are accessed simultaneously. A single-rank memory module has one rank, while a dual-rank memory module has two ranks. Single-rank memory modules have lower latency and are faster than dual-rank memory modules.
ECC and buffered memory
ECC is a feature that detects and corrects errors in memory. It is used in servers and workstations where data integrity is critical. Buffered memory, also known as registered memory, is a type of memory module that uses a buffer to improve performance. Buffered memory modules have higher latency than unbuffered memory modules.
Suitability for Workstations and Desktop PCs
The Kingston KCP548US8-16 is a memory module that is suitable for use in workstations and desktop PCs. Workstations and desktop PCs are used for high-performance computing tasks such as video editing, scientific simulations, and gaming. These tasks require large amounts of memory and high-speed data transfer.
The Kingston KCP548US8-16 has a high clock speed of 4800 MHz, which makes it suitable for use in high-performance computing. Its CAS latency of 40 is also relatively low, which means that it can respond quickly to memory requests.
The Kingston KCP548US8-16 is a single-rank memory module, which means that it has lower latency than dual-rank memory modules. This makes it faster and more responsive. It is also a non-ECC unbuffered memory module, which means that it is less expensive than ECC and buffered memory modules.
