Kingston HyperX T1 6 GB (3x2GB DDR3-1600)

The Kingston HyperX T1 6 GB arrives as 3 modules of 2GB each with 6GB of DDR3 on board. It is specced for 1600 MT/s with a CAS latency of 9, working out to a true latency of about 11.3ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. 6GB gives you enough headroom for esports and everyday use; past 3600 MT/s, extra frequency brings diminishing returns.

As a mid-range DDR3 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. Expect to pay around $65.99, which lands it among mid-range options. Use the PlanMyPC system builder to verify it works alongside your other components and to watch live retailer pricing.
