Mushkin Redline 32 GB (4x8GB DDR3-1866)

The Mushkin Redline 32 GB arrives as 4 modules of 8GB each with 32GB of DDR3 on board. It is rated at 1866 MT/s with a CAS latency of 9, working out to a true latency of about 9.6ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V.

Builders shopping for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4 will find this mid-range DDR3 option easy to justify. Once memory clears 3600 MT/s, frequency gains taper off, so the 32GB on offer here is the spec that counts for gaming plus heavy multitasking and content work. At $89.95 it sits in the mid-range memory kit bracket.
