Good move on Gigabyte being "smart about it" and only doing 2 sticks with the RGB the other 2 are "dummies" if they were really smart about it, they would have maybe had the RGB bar able to be moved to any stick or something like that (just in case for whatever reason the 2 sticks do not function as intended and the other 2 do ^.^. Dragonstongue - Monday, Jlink that is a good idea, not overly fond of everyone doing RGB and glass everywhere as far as the eye can see (likely influencing $$$$$$ they want to sell it for)įor memory especially seeing as the memory chips from the makers are that much more expensive now no need to increase BOM that much higher with loading with RGB crud.Oddly enough, the 2,666MHz kits look to be pricier than their 3,000MHz counterparts. Prices start at US$155 for the 16GB 3,000MHz CL15 kit and range up to US$680 for the 2,666MHz CL16 64GB kit. There aren’t a ton of configurations, and these are definitely not the speediest modules around, but they’re definitely adequate for most uses.Īccording to Corsair, the Vengeance RGB modules are suitable for both Intel Z270 and X99 platforms, and official support for AMD Ryzen is in the works.Ĭorsair is making the new memory available in 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB kits. The Vengeance RGB memory comes in at 8GB per stick and are available at 2,666MHz with CL16 timings and 3,000MHz with CL15 timings. This allows you to synchronize the motherboard and memory lighting with each other, and support from other board makers is coming soon. Lighting control is done through the Corsair Link software, which is also used to control lighting for Corsair’s RGB case fans and liquid coolers. Third-party motherboards with compatible software can also be used to control the lighting effects, and Gigabyte is the first to offer support with its RGB Fusion app. G.Skill’s Trident Z RGB sticks were thus a lot more convenient because they did not need any additional wiring, and we’re happy to report that neither does Corsair’s new Vengeance RGB memory.Įach memory module can display just one color at any moment, but it supports four different dynamic lighting modes, including a static color, breathing, color shifting, and a rainbow that flows across all the modules. However, GeIL’s Evo X RGB modules actually required external power from a separate two-pin fan cable or four-pin power connector. Gigabyte’s RGB Fusion app will let you control Corsair’s new Vengeance RGB memory modulesĬorsair has announced its new DDR4 Vengeance RGB memory modules, joining G.Skill and GeIL in offering some extra LED goodness to system builders.
