Important Configuration Notes

  • MODULES MUST BE ORDERED AND INSTALLED IN IDENTICAL PAIRS OR KITS for Dual Channel mode.
  • A BIOS update may be required to use 24GB and 48GB memory modules featuring 24Gbit DRAM.
  • Memory will clock down to run at optimal speed depending number of modules and types installed per channel. Intel 12th Gen processors, in configurations of 2DPC (2 DIMMs per Channel, 4 total DIMMs installed), standard JEDEC spec (ValueRAM) memory (non-XMP) may clock down. Intel 13th Gen processors natively support up to 5600MT/s DDR5 in 1DPC (1R) using standard JEDEC spec (ValueRAM) memory (non-XMP). 2R modules and populations of 2DPC may be forced to operate at slower speeds. Refer to motherboard manual and QVL for supported memory configurations and speeds.
  • Performance may increase with BIOS updates.

Kingston FURY Configuration Notes

  • FURY Plug N Play memory will run up to the speed allowed by the manufacturer's system BIOS. PnP cannot increase the system memory speed faster than is allowed by the manufacturer's BIOS. Speed, timings, and voltage are also programmed under Profile 1 which can be enabled from the BIOS to engage overclock.
  • Mixing modules or kits of different speeds/timings/voltages is not recommended and may cause instability.
  • Check with your motherboard QVL for the latest tested memory parts and supported configurations.
  • If a K4 "Kit of 4" part is not listed for a particular speed/capacity, it is not recommended to install two K2 "Kit of 2" parts together. K4 kits are only listed if the configuration has been tested as stable.
  • A BIOS update may be required to use 24GB and 48GB memory modules featuring 24Gbit DRAM.
  • Performance may increase with BIOS updates.
  • Kingston FURY Beast parts with AMD EXPO profiles also feature Intel XMP profiles for cross-platform compatibility.
  • Kingston FURY Beast and Renegade with Intel XMP profiles only feature Intel XMP profiles and require a BIOS that supports these to work on AMD chipsets.
  • This motherboard supports memory featuring both AMD EXPO and Intel XMP profiles. The Kingston FURY options listed have been verified compatible by the motherboard manufacturer.

Compatible Upgrades For Your System

Overclocking pushes the stable industry standard specifications of memory (speed, latencies, voltage) to achieve higher performance. While generally safe and supported by Intel, AMD and the motherboard/system manufacturers, overclocking is done at your own risk. System stability may be compromised by some speeds and configurations. The FURY parts listed are based on motherboard manufacturer testing (QVLs) and Kingston internal testing. However, some systems may require premium components (high-end processor models, motherboards, power supplies and water cooling) to achieve stable overclocking, particularly at extreme speeds.

Kingston FURY Renegade with Heatsink (SFYRSK/xxxG, SFYRDK/xxxG) will fit in most systems that can accommodate its size (~80mm x 23.67mm x 10.5mm). This includes a variety of motherboards, desktops, gaming PCs and the PlayStation 5. If you are uncertain whether it will fit, please review your system manufacturer’s support manual, or contact Kingston Technical Support.
Note: Some small-form-factor systems like Intel® NUC cannot physically accommodate the height of the heatsink. In these circumstances, we suggest FURY Renegade without heatsink (SFYRS/xxxG, SFYRD/xxxG).
