G.Skill Value 4 GB (1x4GB DDR3-1600)

The G.Skill Value 4 GB arrives as a single module with 4GB of DDR3 on board. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. It is rated at 1600 MT/s with a CAS latency of 11, working out to a true latency of about 13.8ns. 4GB gives you enough headroom for esports and everyday use; past 3600 MT/s, extra frequency brings diminishing returns.

Builders shopping for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4 will find this mid-range DDR3 option easy to justify. Expect to pay around $62.29, which lands it among mid-range options.
