16MB Kit (2x 8MB) Alliance Semiconductor 72-Pin SIMM EDO Desktop RAM (Model: AS4C14405-60JC)

Description

A matching 2-piece vintage lot of legacy 72-pin SIMM (Single In-line Memory Module) desktop RAM sticks, delivering a total capacity of 16MB (8MB per module). Manufactured by Alliance Semiconductor, these modules feature premium Extended Data Out (EDO) CMOS DRAM logic chips (AS4C14405-60JC) operating at a fast 60 nanoseconds (60ns).

Unlike earlier 30-pin memory, these 72-pin EDO SIMMs were the hallmark upgrade of the mid-to-late 1990s. They are highly sought after by retro-computing hobbyists and collectors looking to supply period-correct memory configurations to high-performance Intel 486DX4, Intel Pentium (Classic), Pentium Pro, or early AMD K5/K6 builds running operating systems like Windows 95 or Windows 98 SE.
