Mushkin Redline 16 GB (4x4GB DDR3-2400)

The Mushkin Redline 16 GB arrives as 4 modules of 4GB each with 16GB of DDR3 on board. It is rated at 2400 MT/s with a CAS latency of 10, working out to a true latency of about 8.3ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V.

Once memory clears 3600 MT/s, frequency gains taper off, so the 16GB on offer here is the spec that counts for modern AAA titles. Builders shopping for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4 will find this budget DDR3 option easy to justify. At $51.99 it sits in the budget memory kit bracket.
