Thermaltake, a leading PC DIY brand for premium hardware solutions, kicked off the "2024 Thermaltake RAM MOD Invitational" an annual competition that gathers modders from all corners of the world to mod the designated Thermaltake ram into their own masterpiece. This year we invited six modders from Austria, Italy, Japan, Thailand, and the United Kingdom to modify the TOUGHRAM XG RGB D5 Memory DDR5.

Participating modders are given a specific time frame to modify the RAM heatsinks, without changing the overall appearance and layout of the RAM itself. Contestants must only use our TOUGHRAM XG RGB D5 modules and cannot add the ram to a motherboard or a PC build. However, they can create a stand or platform for the modules but the overall modules must remain intact with the original design as the main focus.





Contestants will compete for the top three positions for a total cash prize pool of $5,000 US dollars, and will be graded by their originality, design concept, final photos, and their video quality. If the contestant built a stand for the ram, the modder would need to show both with stand and without stand photos and videos.

Grading will be done by the Thermaltake judges and the TT CEO, and also carefully selected professional modders. Tt community members will also contribute to 30% of the final scores for each contestant. So, don't miss out on the chance to win some amazing prizes (including the TOUGHRAM XG RGB Memory DDR4, View 270 TG ARGB Matcha Green Mid Tower Chassis and more) during the prediction giveaway event and the final giveaway event by joining the Tt community and showing your support for your favorite RAM mod!

I don't know about their RAM, but some of their RGB fans seem to have compatibility issues with certain systems and still haven't been fixed to this day afaik.
