Kingston FURY Beast RGB KF436C18BB2A/16 is 16 GB of DDR4 desktop RAM rated at 3600 MT/s with CL18 timing. The black heatsink carries RGB lighting, and an Intel XMP 2.0 profile sets the rated speed with a single BIOS option.

  • Type: DDR4, 288-pin DIMM (desktop), unbuffered, non-ECC
  • Capacity: 16 GB (1 × 16 GB), single rank
  • Speed: 3600 MT/s
  • Timing: CL18
  • Voltage: 1.35 V
  • Extras: Intel XMP 2.0, RGB lighting, heatsink, 43 mm tall

Description

3600 MT/s through XMP, no manual tuning

The rated 3600 MT/s and CL18 are stored in the module's Intel XMP 2.0 profile, so you only need to enable it in the BIOS. The manufacturer also lists the memory as ready for AMD Ryzen systems. Lighting is controlled with Kingston FURY CTRL or your motherboard's RGB software, and Infrared Sync keeps effects in step across several modules. The module stands 43 mm tall, worth checking next to a large CPU cooler.

Who this RAM is for

Gamers and PC builders who want faster memory on a DDR4 platform and some lighting behind a glass side panel; anyone adding a second identical module to an existing 16 GB stick; and anyone whose desktop has started running short of memory.

Questions & answers

Will it fit a laptop?

No. This is a 288-pin DIMM module for a desktop motherboard; laptops use smaller SO-DIMM modules.

Is this a two-module kit?

No, the package contains one 16 GB module. For dual-channel mode add a second identical module for 32 GB in total.

Will it work with my Intel or AMD platform?

The manufacturer lists XMP certification and AMD Ryzen support. Some Intel chipsets released before the 8th generation may need a BIOS update to support memory built on 16Gbit chips, so check with your motherboard maker.
