Patriot Viper Steel
A single 32GB DDR4 module running at 3600 MT/s with CL18 timings provides a straightforward path to high capacity without immediately populating all DIMM slots. The aluminum heat spreader maintains consistent thermals under load, while the 1.35V operating voltage remains within standard XMP profiles. This kit is best for budget-conscious system builders who need 32GB of memory now and want to preserve an open slot for a future 64GB upgrade.
