MODEL ID: Kingston ValueRAM KVR16N11/8. Confirm the full model number, suffix, revision and SPD against the actual specimen before relying on compatibility or timing claims.

Model specifications

Manufacturer / productKingston ValueRAM KVR16N11/8
Product classSpecific Kingston DDR3-1600 desktop UDIMM
Source-backed configuration8 GB DDR3-1600 (PC3-12800 class), 240-pin unbuffered non-ECC DIMM; CL11; nominal 1.5 V per product specification. Rank is not claimed because revisions may differ.
Platform compatibilityRequires DDR3 system support for 8 GB DIMMs and the module density. Not for DDR2 or DDR4; the processor may operate it at a lower supported data rate.
Variant boundariesOnly values cited for this exact SKU are stated. Unlisted timings, ranks, organization, or sub-revision differences must be checked against the specimen label, SPD and manufacturer data.

Compatibility & service notes

  • Requires DDR3 system support for 8 GB DIMMs and the module density. Not for DDR2 or DDR4; the processor may operate it at a lower supported data rate.
  • Power down before removal, use ESD precautions, handle by the edges, and never force a memory module into a keyed socket.
  • Identify ECC and buffering independently: ECC UDIMM, RDIMM, and LRDIMM have distinct platform support requirements. DDR5 on-die ECC is not system-level ECC.
  • Check CPU/controller support, motherboard or server service manual, firmware, module capacity/density, slot population and supported data rate. Physical fit is not proof of compatibility.

Archival record fields

Record sticker revision/date code and SPD-reported organization; confirm platform maximum capacity and density support before service. Preserve label photographs, SPD data, full SKU, revision/date code, host configuration, BIOS/BMC version and test results. When installed, record slot and channel location.

Manufacturer & standards sources

  1. Kingston — KVR16N11/8 datasheetManufacturer source for the named product; use full part number and revision to verify the specimen.
  2. JEDEC — DDR3 SDRAM standardGeneration-level standards context; the product listing identifies the module-specific data.

Manufacturer pages are the model-specific source; JEDEC pages define generation-level context. For a preserved machine, its vendor manual and validated memory support list take precedence over generic fit claims.
