Patriot Viper Xtreme Division 4 8 GB (4x2GB DDR3-1866)

The Patriot Viper Xtreme Division 4 8 GB ships as 4 modules of 2GB each with 8GB of DDR3 on board. It is specced for 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. As a mid-range DDR3 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4.

8GB gives you enough headroom for esports and everyday use; past 3600 MT/s, extra frequency brings diminishing returns. Expect to pay around $72.65, which lands it among mid-range options.
