Kingston FURY Beast KF432C16BB/16 RAM DDR4 16 GB 3200 MT/s CL16

The Kingston FURY Beast KF432C16BB/16 is a single 16 GB DDR4 RAM module for desktop PCs, running at 3200 MT/s with CL16 timing. The module with its low black heat spreader supports an Intel XMP 2.0 profile and is listed as ready for AMD Ryzen platforms – a simple way to give a sluggish PC or a new gaming build more memory.

  • Type: DDR4, 288-pin DIMM for desktops, non-ECC
  • Capacity: 16 GB (1 × 16 GB)
  • Speed: 3200 MT/s (PC4-25600)
  • Timing and voltage: CL16, 1.2 V
  • Profile and cooling: Intel XMP 2.0, low-profile black heat spreader

Description

An XMP profile that unlocks full speed

Without tuning, DDR4 memory often boots at a lower base speed. The KF432C16BB/16 stores an Intel XMP 2.0 profile: enable it in the BIOS and the memory runs at 3200 MT/s with CL16 timing straight away, with no values to type in by hand. Kingston also lists it as ready for AMD Ryzen systems. At just 34.1 mm tall, the module leaves more room for a large CPU cooler.

Who this RAM is for

Desktop owners whose PC has started to run short of memory in the browser, in games or in photo editing; system builders who want to start with one 16 GB module and add a second later; and gamers on a DDR4 platform for whom 3200 MT/s at CL16 is a sensible balance of speed and latency.

Questions & answers

Will this memory fit a laptop?

No. This is a 288-pin DIMM module for desktop PCs. Laptops use the smaller SO-DIMM modules.

Should memory be installed in pairs?

The KF432C16BB/16 is a single module. Dual-channel mode needs two modules; the safest choice for the second is one with the same part number, or a two-module kit from the start.

Does it work with an older Intel processor?

According to Kingston, some older Intel chipsets and processors from before the 8th generation do not support DDR4 memory chips with 16 Gbit density. In that case, check whether the motherboard maker offers a BIOS update.
