Galax Shows off its Gamer RGB DDR5 Modules
DIMM designs by the various DRAM module manufacturers are always something of a personal taste thing and then there's the polarising issue of RGB or not. Well, it looks like Galax has worked on something special for its upcoming Gamer RGB DDR5 modules that is likely to cause mixed reactions, but we have a feeling they'll potentially be popular with younger gamers.
The new modules are expected to come in kits of two, ranging in size from 16 to 64 GB, with the 32 GB kit launching first. These are merely 4800 MHz modules, so there's not too much to get excited about there and no timings have been announced. However, these are the first customisable DIMMs we've ever come across, as the RGB LED strip at the top of the module is compatible with LEGO bricks, although presumably there's no official license involved here. Based on the fact that it's Galaxy China that has shown off these modules, they're unlikely to make an appearance in markets outside of China.

And yes.. it's rare. Try finding their high-end stuff like HOF.

4800mhz DDR5 is NOT the same speed as DDR4 2400. Even accounting for latency bandwidth is higher.
How is it that every single generation we have to keep :slap: ping this information into people's heads?
Speed is the first derivative of the law of motion. And that's just for starters.
Come on, people. It's hard at fisrt but then everyone benefits from it. Well, almost everyone.Yeah! Just imagine how expensive and awkward our future cybentetic girfriends would be?
She be like 'Come on, honey! Let's have the sekz!' And we be like 'Aww, hell naw, b! Bend over so I can plug you into the TV and play some games on your GPU!'
Talk about 1st world problems in 22nd century!
