Crucial CT102472BD1339 8 GB (1x8GB DDR3-1333)

The Crucial CT102472BD1339 8 GB ships as a single module with 8GB of DDR3 on board. It is specced for 1333 MT/s with a CAS latency of 9, working out to a true latency of about 13.5ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. DDR3 pricing in the budget 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 8GB on offer here is the spec that counts for esports and everyday use. Its $34.99 price tag places it squarely in budget territory.
