Mushkin 976643A 4 GB (2x2GB DDR3-1066)

The Mushkin 976643A 4 GB arrives as 2 modules of 2GB each with 4GB of DDR3 on board. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. It is rated at 1066 MT/s with a CAS latency of 7, working out to a true latency of about 13.1ns.

DDR3 pricing in the budget tier makes this a sensible pairing for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. Once memory clears 3600 MT/s, frequency gains taper off, so the 4GB on offer here is the spec that counts for esports and everyday use. Expect to pay around $52.99, which lands it among budget options.
