Note: It is best to check with the motherboard manufacturer to make sure you have the proper BIOS and settings for any voltage configuration. Kingston warrantees that the memory has been produced and tested to meet memory specifications. Customer experience may vary based upon the BIOS revision, system configuration, OS settings and component warranties. Overclocking may void warranty on some sub-components in a system; see manufacturer for details.

† The information below will help illustrate the appropriate settings when adjusting the memory timings in the motherboard BIOS for optimum performance. Please note that these settings may vary depending on motherboard make/model or BIOS update.

Sample:

Part Number	Timings

Timing	Definition	Abbreviations	What it does
9	CAS Latency	CL	Delay between activation of row and reading of row
9	RAS to CAS (or Row to Column Delay)	tRCD	Activates row
9	Row Precharge Delay (or RAS Precharge Delay)	tRP/tRCP	Deactivates row
27	Row Active Delay (or RAS Active Delay, or time to ready)	tRA/tRD/tRAS	Number of clock cycles between activation and deactivation of row
1	Command Rate	CMD Rate	Delay between chip select and command

Notice: All Kingston products are tested individually to meet our published specifications. Not all systems or motherboard configurations will operate at these published specifications. Optimal settings for individual system configurations may be less than the published HyperX module speeds and timings. Performance from installing additional kits is not guaranteed. Remove existing memory before adding HyperX to achieve optimal performance. Overclocking the CPU or the Memory Bus may result in damage to computer components. Kingston does not recommend that any user attempt to run their systems faster than OEM or system published specifications. Please refer to your OEM, system or other component vendors technical specifications for any additional information.
