Full description and specifications

  • 1600MHz (PC3-12800) rated speed

  • 1.5V standard DDR3 operating voltage
  • Bare green PCB, no heat spreader, no RGB

What this module is actually for

This is a repair and legacy-maintenance part, and we would rather say so than dress it up. DDR3 desktops are a decade or more old now, and the reason to buy a stick like this is a specific one: a module has failed, an office fleet machine needs to stay in service, a second-hand PC came with an empty slot, or a family desktop needs to keep running Windows and a browser without paging constantly. At 1600MHz and 1.5V it matches the most common DDR3 spec of that era, so it slots alongside existing sticks in most systems without any BIOS fiddling.

Do not buy this for gaming

Four gigabytes is not a modern gaming configuration, and no amount of framing changes that — 16GB is the practical floor for current titles, and 8GB struggles. Nor is this an upgrade path: DDR3 platforms are end of life, their CPUs are far behind current entry-level parts, and money spent topping one up is money not spent on a modern build. If you are gaming and considering this, put the budget toward a DDR4 or DDR5 system instead. Note also that DDR3 is physically incompatible with DDR4 and DDR5 boards; the notch position differs and the module will not seat. Single rank matters for mixing — some older boards are fussy about combining ranks and densities, so check your motherboard's QVL and existing modules before ordering.

FEATURES:

  • Standard 1600MHz PC3-12800 speed for straightforward drop-in replacement
  • Single rank organisation, generally the easier configuration for older chipsets
  • Runs at the DDR3 standard 1.5V with no profile to enable

  • 100% tested Patriot module backed by a Limited Lifetime warranty

Questions

Before you buy

Will this memory work in my PC?
This is DDR3 rated at 1600 MT/s. Your motherboard has to support the same generation - DDR4 and DDR5 modules are keyed differently and will not physically fit the wrong board. The rated speed needs the memory profile (XMP on Intel, EXPO on AMD) switched on in the BIOS; without it the kit runs at the board’s default speed.
What exactly is in this kit?
4GB in total, supplied as 1 matched modules. Modules sold together are tested to run as a set, which is why a kit is the safer buy than two single sticks bought separately. Fit them in the slots your motherboard manual specifies for dual channel - usually the second and fourth from the CPU.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
