Need 64GB of DDR4 RAM? This $99.99 Newegg deal is worth looking at

Mushkin Enhanced Redline Stiletto 2x32GB DDR4-3200 CL16.

Yup, it’s another DDR4 deal post - but this time, it’s for the US market and covers a 64GB dual-channel kit, for all of you video creators, game server operators and high-number-likers out there. Newegg is offering a 64GB kit of Mushkin Enhanced Redline Stiletto DDR4-3200 CL16 for $99.99, a great price considering the same RAM kit cost $169.99 for Black Friday last year.

I’ve covered this DDR4-3200 CL16 spec point many times, but to make the point briefly, this is the DDR4 price/performance sweet spot and has been for a long time. You see fairly steep gains in CPU-limited scenarios (eg 1080p gaming) from 2133MT/s to 3200MT/s, continued improvements to 3600MT/s, and diminishing returns beyond that point. 3200MT/s is also the cheapest DDR4 RAM spec right now, so it’s an obvious choice if you’re upgrading from common older DDR4 kits like 2400MT/s or 2666MT/s.

CL16 refers to the RAM’s latency or timings, with CL16 being about average for a 3200MT/s kit - and although CL14 kits are available, they aren’t worth their higher cost.
