Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 8 GB (1x8GB DDR4-2666)

The Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 8 GB ships as a single module with 8GB of DDR4 on board. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. It is rated at 2666 MT/s with a CAS latency of 16, working out to a true latency of about 12ns. 8GB gives you enough headroom for esports and everyday use; past 3600 MT/s, extra frequency brings diminishing returns.

DDR4 pricing in the mid-range tier makes this a sensible pairing for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. Expect to pay around $92.99, which lands it among mid-range options.
