Overview
The Crucial Ballistix 16 GB ships as 2 modules of 8GB each with 16GB of DDR3 on board. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. It is rated at 1600 MT/s with a CAS latency of 8, working out to a true latency of about 10ns. 16GB gives you enough headroom for modern AAA titles; past 3600 MT/s, extra frequency brings diminishing returns.
As a budget DDR3 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. Expect to pay around $42.00, which lands it among budget options. Use the PlanMyPC system builder to verify it works alongside your other components and to watch live retailer pricing.
