RGB off: 3500Mb/s

..It's like everyone forgets that the RGB features can be turned off.

..It's like everyone forgets that the RGB features can be turned off.

But it comes at a cost.
And not just monetary, as the design has to support it.
Saw a video not long ago where RGB ram came apart upon trying to install it.
The lightbar and heat spreader came away, because there was not next to nothing at the top due to the RGB inclusion.
Something has to give to include it.

We just can't pretend that RGB can be turned off and everything is as it would be without it.

Am I the only one that does not see a real value on this product? I mean, you can already get an NVMe SSD of your choice (capacity, performance and endurance) and mount it in one of the widespread available PCIe 3.0 x4 cards. Some of them include cooling and even led effects.

So what's the value? That you don't need to put it together? It's a 2 minutes job...
