PNY Anarchy X 16 GB (4x4GB DDR3-2800)

The PNY Anarchy X 16 GB comes as 4 modules of 4GB each with 16GB of DDR3 on board. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. It is specced for 2800 MT/s with a CAS latency of 12, working out to a true latency of about 8.6ns.

Builders shopping for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4 will find this high-end DDR3 option easy to justify. Once memory clears 3600 MT/s, frequency gains taper off, so the 16GB on offer here is the spec that counts for modern AAA titles. Expect to pay around $214.99, which lands it among high-end options.
