Crucial Single, 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR4-2666MHz DIMM 288-Pin Memory with CL19

Bought Crucial RAM 32GB Kit (2x16GB) DDR4 2400 MHz. Installed it today. First attempt didn't go well as the PC would not boot. Unplugged everything, removed the memory and re-installed...this time ensuring I heard the "click" when seating the memory. Turned the PC back on it everything worked great...just a LOT faster. Couldn't be happier. The first attempt I was afraid of pushing too hard to hear the click so I manually pulled up the clips to hold the memory in place. That didn't work. Once I reinstalled and pushed enough to hear the click...I was off an running!

I used Crucial's "find my memory" program to select an upgrade on my workstation.The installed was 16g / Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6400 CPU @ 2.70GHz 2.71 GHz.It ends up with lots of applications open at once, I was using virtually all my PC memory, around 98% at any given time, would often lag on me when I needed it.Upgraded to 64gig, because it was super cheap, now it runs super smooth, this is 7 y/o PC and with a SSD and 64gig memory it's extended it's life well past it's days.If you're on the fence about it, it's super easy to install, just don't force anything and make sure you spray air it out, do the entire PC because it will run slightly warmer and you don't wanna find a weak link.

Make sure when you buy any type of flash memory off the internet that your purchase a reputable name brand product. There are so many dupes and fakes out there you must be sure that you read the reviews and never buy memory that has a 'too good to be true' price. Crucial is a great brand, and the ram is working wonderfully.

Just received this 16GB stick today, popped it in and it started right up and so i proceeded to run some tests... I know many people with the 5675 Inspiron Gaming Desktop have had problems with getting the memory to run at its rated speed of 2400Mhz. The system comes with only 1 stick of ram so it can't run in duel channel mode until you add another stick so I bought this second 16GB module and now it runs at exactly 2400Mhz. It's blazing fast now. I don't need 32 GB's of ram but I wanted the performance boost of duel channel so I splurged and bought another stick. It's very easy to install and very little force is needed to seat the ram properly so don't force it. The CAS latency is quite nice 17 across the board quite snappy. I attached a photo of the results. This along with the NVME M.2 PCIe card I installed makes the a system quite a powerhouse at a very reasonable price. 950USD at Best Buy, system specs as follows Ryzen 7 1700, 32GB 2400Mhz ram, 128GB Samsung NVME M.2 PCIe, 1TB 7200 HHD, Rx 580 video card. This comp plays everything now on ultra settings from Wither 3 to PUBG and Battlefield 4... I plan on upgrading the video card to a GTX 1080 and another SSD in the near future. This computer blows away my 5 year old 4k dollar system! Crucial makes some high grade memory as well. I opted for this one over the Kingston as it had more high rated reviews and I'm not disappointed. Do yourself a favor and go for it!
