TEAMGROUP Dark 8 GB (1x8GB DDR3-1600)

The TEAMGROUP Dark 8 GB ships as a single module with 8GB of DDR3 on board. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. It is rated at 1600 MT/s with a CAS latency of 9, working out to a true latency of about 11.3ns. 8GB gives you enough headroom for esports and everyday use; past 3600 MT/s, extra frequency brings diminishing returns.

DDR3 pricing in the budget tier makes this a sensible pairing for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. Its $39.99 price tag places it squarely in budget territory.
