PNY despatched over a reminiscence package that, at first look, seems to be nothing particular. Certainly, DDR4 reminiscence on the whole has turn out to be a commodity merchandise, with costs falling to historic lows (an un-researched declare that feels proper).
Proper now a 16 GB dual-channel package of the 3600 MT/s (also known as 3600 MHz) reminiscence to assist make your AMD Ryzen processor sing could be had for round $60, and if you would like RGB lighting results you possibly can add about $10 to this beginning worth.
Now, we’re speaking about barely extra mainstream DDR4-3600 right here, with CAS latency of 18 vs. the costlier CL16 and CL14 RAM obtainable. However for players, slight variations in system reminiscence latency at a given velocity are simply not that vital.
It’s simply such a mainstream instance, a DDR4-3600 CL18 package, that PNY despatched over for our inspection. I assume mainstream is the mistaken time period right here, as overclocked RAM remains to be an fanatic product class. I’ll name this entry-level fanatic, as a substitute.
