Mushkin 976647A 8 GB (2x4GB DDR3-1333)

The Mushkin 976647A 8 GB ships as 2 modules of 4GB each with 8GB of DDR3 on board. It is specced for 1333 MT/s with a CAS latency of 9, working out to a true latency of about 13.5ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. 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.

As a budget DDR3 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. Expect to pay around $55.99, which lands it among budget options. PlanMyPC's builder flags compatibility problems automatically and tracks the latest memory kit deals from multiple stores.
