Mushkin Redline 16 GB (2x8GB DDR4-2400)

The Mushkin Redline 16 GB comes as 2 modules of 8GB each with 16GB of DDR4 on board. It is specced for 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. As a mid-range DDR4 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4.

16GB gives you enough headroom for modern AAA titles; past 3600 MT/s, extra frequency brings diminishing returns. Its $99.99 price tag places it squarely in mid-range territory. Use the PlanMyPC system builder to verify it works alongside your other components and to watch live retailer pricing.
