Crucial Ballistix Smart Tracer 4 GB (1x4GB DDR3-1600)

The Crucial Ballistix Smart Tracer 4 GB comes as a single module with 4GB of DDR3 on board. It is specced for 1600 MT/s with a CAS latency of 8, working out to a true latency of about 10ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. Once memory clears 3600 MT/s, frequency gains taper off, so the 4GB on offer here is the spec that counts for esports and everyday use.

As a budget DDR3 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. At $27.97 it sits in the budget memory kit bracket. Use the PlanMyPC system builder to verify it works alongside your other components and to watch live retailer pricing.
