RAM compatibility question

[Gazelem]

I have this 8GB stick of RAM in my system: http://a.co/d/9Qb7hJa

 

I want to get another 8GB, so the easiest thing to do would be to buy the exact same stick again, but it is nearly $100 on Amazon and $85 on Newegg (it was like $45 in early 2017 when I built my PC). There are other 8GB sticks for cheaper ($60ish), but then I have to worry about compatibility.

 

So the question is: are there any RAM options that are cheaper than the one I have, but are still compatible with it?

 

Here is the parts list for my build, if it is relevant: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Gazelem/saved/GQW6hM

 

Thanks in advance!

Should be fine.

He wanted some types that would be compatible, not a yes...

Get a stick that has the same operating frequency and similar cas latency

Okay, what about timings?

Problem is, die/controller differences might cause issues and slow down the RAM as a whole. If speed isn't an issue and don't mind the performance hit of mismatched sticks then you're okay.

Cas latency is a timing. It's considered the most significant timing, and most timings will be grouped under a given cas latency
