G.Skill Ripjaws 8 GB (2x4GB DDR4-2800)

The G.Skill Ripjaws 8 GB arrives as 2 modules of 4GB each with 8GB of DDR4 on board. It is specced for 2800 MT/s with a CAS latency of 18, working out to a true latency of about 12.9ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. DDR4 pricing in the mid-range tier makes this a sensible pairing for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4.

8GB gives you enough headroom for esports and everyday use; past 3600 MT/s, extra frequency brings diminishing returns. Expect to pay around $62.29, which lands it among mid-range options.
