G.Skill Ripjaws Z 32 GB (8x4GB DDR3-1866)

The G.Skill Ripjaws Z 32 GB comes as 8 modules of 4GB each with 32GB of DDR3 on board. It is specced for 1866 MT/s with a CAS latency of 9, working out to a true latency of about 9.6ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V.

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. DDR3 pricing in the budget tier makes this a sensible pairing for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. Expect to pay around $49.00, which lands it among budget options.
