About the units
Kilobyte (kB)
1,000 bytes (decimal). Some software still uses “KB” for 1,024 bytes; that is properly a kibibyte (KiB). One kilobyte equals 8,000 bits (b).
Gibibyte (GiB)
1,073,741,824 bytes (2³⁰). What Windows calls “GB”. One gibibyte equals 8,589,934,592 bits (b).
Frequently asked questions
How many gibibytes are in one kilobyte?
There are 9.313225746×10⁻⁷ gibibytes in one kilobyte, and this value is exact by definition.
How do I convert kilobytes to gibibytes?
Multiply the number of kilobytes by 9.313225746×10⁻⁷. For example, 10 kB × 9.313225746×10⁻⁷ = 0.000009313225746 GiB.
How many kilobytes are in one gibibyte?
One gibibyte equals 1,073,741.824 kilobytes. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 9.313225746×10⁻⁷.
What is 10 kilobytes in gibibytes?
10 kB = 0.000009313225746 GiB.
Is this kB to GiB converter accurate?
Yes. Both units are defined exactly in terms of SI units, so the conversion factor is exact; results are shown to 12 significant figures by default and you can change precision in the converter. Calculations run in your browser using the same tested engine that generated this page.
