Patriot Signature 8 GB (1x8GB DDR3-1600)

The Patriot Signature 8 GB arrives as a single module with 8GB of DDR3 on board. It is specced for 1600 MT/s with a CAS latency of 11, working out to a true latency of about 13.8ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. 8GB gives you enough headroom for esports and everyday use; past 3600 MT/s, extra frequency brings diminishing returns.

As a budget DDR3 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. Its $22.99 price tag places it squarely in budget territory. Drop it into the PlanMyPC builder to check compatibility with the rest of your parts and compare current memory kit prices across retailers.
