Patriot Viper Elite 8 GB (2x4GB DDR4-2400)

The Patriot Viper Elite 8 GB arrives as 2 modules of 4GB each with 8GB 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. Once memory clears 3600 MT/s, frequency gains taper off, so the 8GB on offer here is the spec that counts for esports and everyday use.

As a mid-range DDR4 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. At $96.33 it sits in the mid-range 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.
