upset. Maybe quality control issues?

First things first. I really like the look of these lamb sticks, especially in my physique. In terms of performance, they seem good, but I still have to overclock them, so we'll see what happens. The ram is on the higher side, so keep that in mind when using a large air cooler. I bought the 4x8 32GB kit and the installation was easy. The BIG issue I have is the RBG highlighting. So one of the RAM sticks has problems with RGB. The white version on a stick has a "pink" tint and turns completely white. I've updated the Corsair firmware to the latest version and swapped DIMMs, but the problem persists. Also, it looks like the RGB LEDs were assembled upside down for this flash drive. Corsair iHue software allows you to change individual rows of lights. I have changed lines 12 and 13 as a test and as you can see in the photos I upload. The first 3 sticks of Aries have changed properly (bottom 2 bulbs), but the last stick has changed the top 2 bulbs instead. This problem also occurred when using the lighting pattern configuration. Check out my video. And yes, they installed correctly. I've also checked several online forums and there seems to be an issue with certain model numbers. This leads me to believe that this is a hardware issue and not a software issue and could be a quality control issue in the manufacturing process. Since it is RGB memory, RGB problems are not a problem. So I'm going back. I can also reorder to see if it was really a bad batch I received.

Pros
  • The highest ability
Cons
  • I'll write later
