What Buyers Say
Crucial CT2KIT51264BD160B 8GB DDR3L-1600
85 out of 100 low confidence 8 reviews
This Crucial DDR3 RAM is praised for its low power consumption at 1.35V, making it ideal for budget servers and 24/7 operation. Users report stable performance, fast boot times, and excellent value, especially when bought in multi-stick packs. However, there is confusion about timings (CL9 vs CL11) and a potential BIOS speed setting issue that may cause the OS to not detect all RAM. Overall, it is a reliable and affordable upgrade for older systems like Optiplexes.
