Mushkin Blackline 8 GB (1x8GB DDR4-2400)

The Mushkin Blackline 8 GB ships as a single module with 8GB of DDR4 on board. It is rated at 2400 MT/s with a CAS latency of 15, working out to a true latency of about 12.5ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. 8GB 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 DDR4 option easy to justify. Its $70.63 price tag places it squarely in mid-range territory.
