Corsair now offers RGB RAM modules, but without the RAM

If you were looking to fill up those empty memory slots you have on your rig with some sweet RGB lighting, then have I got some good news, as Corsair has you covered.

Offering a solution to filling up those spare DIMM slots, the tech brand now offers an enhancement kit that includes two RAM sticks from their Vengeance RGB Pro series. This includes two 8gb DDR4 sticks complete with 10 customizable RGB LED lights in each. I will reiterate, these modules serve no function to your system, and are for aesthetic purposes only.

These RAM kits continue the California-based brand strategy of offering a selection of peripherals and accessories decked out with their signature RGB lighting, which includes gaming mouse pads, CPU liquid coolers, and headphone stands.

This is not the first time that fake RAM kits have been offered. Back in June, Gigabyte started offering its Aorus RGB DDR4-3200 package with two additional fake sticks , completing a set of four modules but only charging the customer for the two real ones. The difference here is that Corsair offers the enhancement kit as a standalone product, meaning that they can be fitted to any rig regardless of what brand of memory it may be running.

The enhancement kit is available in both black and white, and the RGB lights can be customized through Corsair’s CUE software, thus allowing for a full synchronized lighting setup with other Corsair products that might be in use.

And what will this colourful novelty cost you? A cool $40 on the Corsair website.

    Anyone who buys these may as well run out into the road and scream that they have too much money and have run out of useful things to buy.

    Food for 2 weeks or the most useless of useless things I’ve seen in my life that aren’t breathing. Tough choice.

      R500 for two weeks of food. I wonder if people who buy Porches think to themselves “food for 9000 weeks, or a car”

      actual maths^

        If you can afford a Porsche I don’t think you’re worried about money for food. XD

    That’s kind of like how EA offers you a game without the content.

    My brother in law, when he was 20, would totally have done this.

    Freaking Christmas tree of a computer he had. “Liquid cooling” (hahaha) with LED lights everywhere.

    Even he, a few years on, would not, surely, buy this.

    Wealthy PC gamers are the reason we have load shedding.
