AIDA64 Engineer again and this time with the Cache & Memory Benchmark Latency results. Ballistix have a page that talks about Latency and some general misunderstandings, it’s worth a read. AIDA64 Engineer Cache & Memory Benchmark gives a real world Latency output.
The Ballistix Elite 16GB DDR4 3200Mhz Kit is showing off its true performance with the benchamrk. The 3200Mhz speed contributing to the fastest, or lowest, Latency we have tested. This is even with the slightly looser timings (16-18-18-36) than its closest rival Ballistix Tactical DDR4 3000Mhz 32GB Kit (15-16-16-35).
Ballistix Elite 16GB DDR4 3200Mhz Memory Kit Review

The main thing going for the Ballistix Elite kit is the price, it's at the lower end of the 3200Mhz DDR4 pricing, despite being at the sharper end when it comes to performance. We have scored it the highest on price in our memory review criteria. We think this memory kit would fly if it were a 32Gb kit, and at its low pricing, it's more achievable, though only if you have an Intel i7 LGA2011-V3 setup, or equivalent Quad Channel system. So it's cheap, not too bad looking and fast, you need to consider this memory kit for your next build.
