Kingston ValueRAM 8 GB (1x8GB DDR4-2400)

The Kingston ValueRAM 8 GB ships as a single module with 8GB of DDR4 on board. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. It is rated at 2400 MT/s with a CAS latency of 17, working out to a true latency of about 14.2ns. Builders shopping for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4 will find this mid-range DDR4 option easy to justify.

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. Its $64.78 price tag places it squarely in mid-range territory.
