RAM Tier List — Performance & Value
In-stock RAM memory kits placed in S–F tiers by memory speed (MT/s) (snapshot 2026-07-11), each tagged with its Value Score. The top tier is led by the G.SKILL Trident 64GB DDR5 6400MHz. Sorted by performance — flip to value in the calculator.
RAM performance tiers (Value shown per card)
Tiers reflect memory speed (MT/s) relative to today's leader; "Value" = performance-per-dollar under the balanced preset. Both recompute on every data refresh. Not an editorial ranking.
