This unbuffered, non-ECC DDR4-2400 UDIMM is a desktop memory module purpose-built for mainstream gaming, productivity, and content creation rigs, where its single-rank x8 organization ensures a light electrical load on the memory controller for superior signal integrity and broad consumer platform compatibility. Operating at a low 1.2 V with a responsive CL17 column access strobe latency, it delivers power-efficient, plug-and-play performance ideal for Intel and AMD desktop systems that require reliable multitasking without stability compromises.
1. DDR4 technology ensures seamless plug-and-play compatibility with a vast range of consumer desktop motherboards, making it a reliable drop-in upgrade for aging office PCs or family systems.
2. The 2400 MT/s transfer rate delivers smooth multitasking throughput, eliminating perceptible lag when juggling browser tabs, media playback, and productivity applications simultaneously.
3. CL17 low-latency timing sharpens system responsiveness, giving competitive gamers faster reaction windows in fast-paced titles where every frame matters.
4. 1.2V operation minimizes heat output inside mid-tower cases, preserving thermal headroom for CPU and GPU boost clocks during extended rendering or gaming sessions.
5. Single Rank x8 organization reduces electrical load on the memory controller, enabling easier overclocking stability and higher manual frequency tuning for enthusiasts chasing extra FPS.
The Samsung M378A1K43BB2-CRC is a desktop UDIMM engineered for users who demand real-world responsiveness, not just spec sheets. Its four defining characteristics solve genuine pain points in gaming and content creation. First, the 2400MHz speed and CL17 latency deliver instant data access that eliminates micro-stutter in AAA games and accelerates rendering previews in creative suites. Second, the 1.2V low-voltage profile keeps power consumption and thermals low, maintaining boost clocks during marathon editing sessions. Third, the single-rank x8 architecture promotes cleaner signal integrity, allowing you to install two modules for dual-channel performance without the stability issues often seen in mixed-rank configurations when rendering complex scenes. Finally, as a standard unbuffered, Non-ECC, 288-pin UDIMM, it guarantees effortless compatibility across vast desktop ecosystems, turning an upgrade into a simple click-in process. For the user, this means less downtime troubleshooting crashes and more time enjoying buttery-smooth frame rates or faster project turnaround.
Gaming Build
For a responsive dual-channel setup, install two matched 8GB DDR4-2400 UDIMMs for a 16GB kit. This ensures smooth gameplay and multitasking in modern titles. If budget allows, upgrade to a 32GB kit (four 8GB modules) to future-proof for memory-hungry AAA games and streaming.
Content Creation
Video editing and 3D rendering benefit from high capacity. Populate all four DIMM slots with 8GB modules to reach 64GB, enabling seamless 4K timeline scrubbing and complex scene renders. The non-ECC, single-rank design keeps latencies low for responsive timeline performance under heavy asset loads.
General Productivity
A single 8GB module delivers reliable performance for email, web browsing, and office suites—ideal for cost-conscious builds. For heavier multitasking, a 16GB dual-channel pair (2×8GB) prevents slowdowns when juggling dozens of browser tabs, spreadsheets, and conferencing apps, offering the best price-to-performance ratio.
Validated for desktop: rigorously tested, compatible with Intel 100/200 Series, Dell OptiPlex 7050, HP EliteDesk 800 G3.
Q: Can I mix this M378A1K43BB2-CRC with other memory modules of different brands or speeds?
A: Mixing this module with different brands or speeds may lead to instability. For guaranteed dual‑channel operation and full compatibility, we strongly recommend using identical modules with the same part number.
Q: Is this memory compatible with my system?
A: This 288‑pin DDR4 UDIMM is designed for desktop platforms. It is compatible with Intel 100/200/300 series chipsets and AMD AM4 motherboards that support non‑ECC, unbuffered DDR4 memory. Verify your board’s QVL.
Q: What is the recommended DIMM population order for optimal performance?
A: For dual‑channel motherboards, populate the A2 and B2 slots first (typically the second and fourth slots from the CPU). This enables optimal dual‑channel performance; consult your manual for exact slot numbering.
Q: Does this module support overclocking or XMP profiles?
A: No. This module strictly follows the JEDEC DDR4‑2400 standard (CL17, 1.2V). It does not contain an XMP profile and does not support overclocking. Operation is guaranteed at its native speed only.
Q: What warranty and typical failure rate can I expect?
A: This product is backed by a 1‑year warranty. It undergoes rigorous quality testing, ensuring an extremely low annualized failure rate under normal operating conditions, well within industry standards.
