Corsair has released its first Vengeance RGB DRAM modules, which come with heat spreaders that feature LED lighting that can be controlled by Corsair Link software or GIGABYTE'S RGB Fusion app:

Corsair last week started to sell its first Vengeance RGB memory modules, equipped with full sets of RGB LEDs that can change their colors using OS software. Right now Corsair offers DDR4-2666 and DDR4-3000 modules, but eventually we expect the Vengeance RGB lineup will be expanded.

Just like other Vengeance memory modules, the Vengeance RGB DIMMs are based on Corsair's custom PCBs as well as preselected ICs. The modules come with aluminum heat spreaders featuring RGB LEDs that can change colors dynamically using the Corsair Link software, allowing users to synchronize colors of RGB lighting of their DIMMs and specific motherboard brands. Lighting of each module can be controlled separately as well. The lighting of the Vengeance RGB can also be controlled using GIGABYTE's RGB Fusion app and Corsair states that eventually other producers of LED-controlling software are expected to follow.

    Light transmission can be fixed with system management code, BIOS etc. And no one knows what all these integrated chips really do anyway.
