G.Skill Sniper 8 GB (2x4GB DDR3-2400)

The G.Skill Sniper 8 GB ships as 2 modules of 4GB each with 8GB of DDR3 on board. It is specced for 2400 MT/s with a CAS latency of 11, working out to a true latency of about 9.2ns. 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.

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. At $72.03 it sits in the mid-range memory kit bracket.
