Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. 16GB gives you enough headroom for modern AAA titles; past 3600 MT/s, extra frequency brings diminishing returns.

As a high-end DDR4 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. At $129.99 it sits in the high-end memory kit bracket. Drop it into the PlanMyPC builder to check compatibility with the rest of your parts and compare current memory kit prices across retailers.
