Crucial Ballistix Sport 32 GB (4x8GB DDR3-1600)

The Crucial Ballistix Sport 32 GB comes as 4 modules of 8GB each with 32GB of DDR3 on board. It is rated at 1600 MT/s with a CAS latency of 9, working out to a true latency of about 11.3ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V.

DDR3 pricing in the high-end tier makes this a sensible pairing for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. Once memory clears 3600 MT/s, frequency gains taper off, so the 32GB on offer here is the spec that counts for gaming plus heavy multitasking and content work. At $158.02 it sits in the high-end memory kit bracket.
