G.Skill Ripjaws Z 64 GB (8x8GB DDR3-2133)

The G.Skill Ripjaws Z 64 GB ships as 8 modules of 8GB each with 64GB of DDR3 on board. It is rated at 2133 MT/s with a CAS latency of 11, working out to a true latency of about 10.3ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. As a mid-range DDR3 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4.

64GB gives you enough headroom for gaming plus heavy multitasking and content work; past 3600 MT/s, extra frequency brings diminishing returns. At $99.99 it sits in the mid-range memory kit bracket.
