Patriot Intel Extreme Master, Limited Ed 32 GB (4x8GB DDR3-1866)

The Patriot Intel Extreme Master, Limited Ed 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 10, working out to a true latency of about 10.7ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V.

As a high-end DDR3 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. 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. Its $225.94 price tag places it squarely in high-end territory.
