Crucial Ballistix Sport 3 GB (3x1GB DDR3-1333)

The Crucial Ballistix Sport 3 GB ships as 3 modules of 1GB each with 3GB of DDR3 on board. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. It is rated at 1333 MT/s with a CAS latency of 9, working out to a true latency of about 13.5ns. DDR3 pricing in the budget tier makes this a sensible pairing for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4.

3GB gives you enough headroom for esports and everyday use; past 3600 MT/s, extra frequency brings diminishing returns. Expect to pay around $47.27, which lands it among budget options.
