The G.SKILL Ares F3-2133C11D-16GAR is a 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-2133 dual-channel desktop memory kit for users upgrading compatible Intel LGA1155 or LGA1150 PCs for gaming and everyday computing; enable XMP or tune the BIOS to reach its rated speed.
Recommended For
- Owners of a compatible DDR3 desktop who want to replace a smaller memory kit with a matched 16GB (2 x 8GB) dual-channel kit for everyday multitasking or gaming on an older PC.
- Small-form-factor PC builders or users with large CPU coolers who need DDR3 memory with a low-profile heat spreader; G.SKILL positions the Ares design for space-constrained builds.
- Owners of a supported Intel LGA1150 system who want to run this exact kit at its rated DDR3-2133 profile; Intel’s XMP list records the model with an i7-4790K and a compatible Gigabyte Z97 motherboard.
- Users upgrading an existing DDR3 desktop who prefer a matched two-module kit rather than combining separate memory kits; G.SKILL advises against mixing kits because of potential compatibility issues.
