Crucial at CES 2020: Condensing the Ballistix Brand Under Ballistix, Ballistix RGB, and Ballistix MAX
Crucial at CES 2020 showcased their upcoming changes to their memory portfolio, with their Crucial Ballistix lineup being condensed into just three brands: Ballistix, Ballistix RGB, and Ballistix MAX. These lineups replace the company's Ballistix Sport, Tactical, and Elite products under a redesigned portfolio and aesthetic language.
Ballistix will be the mainstream memory solutions, ranging through speeds from 2400 MHz to 3600 MHz and densities of 4 GB to 32 GB. The new, modernized aluminium heatspreader design is available in black, red, or white colors, and in DIMM or SODIMM form-factors. Ballistix RGB are basically the same sticks, but with an added 8 zones and 16 LEDs of RGB lighting to the heatspreader via usage of a diffuser.
The coup de grâce from Crucial comes in the form of the Ballistix MAX lineup, which brings premium speeds of 4000 MHz to 4400 MHz and densities of 8 GB and 16 GB. There is a non-RGB and an RGB version, and both feature a removable lightbar that can be 3D-printed at users' personalizatio wills. The new Crucial Ballistix lineup will be available come February 4th via retailers and Crucial's webstore.

Ballistix, Ballistix RGB, Ballistix MAX : 3 product lines
Tell me again about this "condensing".
Get ready for the next evolution in Crucial gaming memory. The Crucial Ballistix and Crucial Ballistix MAX lines feature high-quality Micron die, brilliant RGB, and dynamic heat spreaders for maximum performance.
these list are from over a year or older and do not reflect the actual chips that can do this speeds.
if its not an old kit lying around i think crucial will not use samsung chips in 3466mhz kits
RyanIt's setup as two product lines... Ballistix, and Ballistix MAX. Both of them will have an option of RGB or not.
Looking at the old lineup:
Sport LT, SPORT AT, Tactical, Tactical Tracer RGB, ELITE.It should be some of the lowest profile RGB product out there. I believe 39.17mm is the actual listed spec, but I threw a caliper on one. :)
