Remember GeIl? I certainly do - mainly on account of a fleeting passion for the company's line of Black Dragon DDR3 memory. That same company has now announced availability of their EVO X DDR4 memory kits. That they took some time in the oven is an understatement, considering these kits were first announced back in May. The company now believes they are ready for prime time.
As expected, and as the name suggests, GeIl's EVO X features customizable RGB lighting on account of the company's Hybrid-Independent-Light-Module Technology, which means that LEDs, microprocessor, circuits, switch and dual-power-source are all fitted in one modular solution, which separates the entire lighting circuitry from the memory module, thus ensuring its stability.
The modules are powered by 12V RGB power cables in use with applicable motherboards from ASUS, Gigabyte or MSI, which ensures the memory's RGB can be controlled in sync with the motherboard's and other components. If you don't possess one of the compatible models (just check the image below to see which ones are), you can power the RGB lighting through your motherboard's fan headers, though that will reduce your lighting options to just red, green, blue, or an RGB cycling mode, which can be selected by use of what GeIl calls a "Sliding Hot Switch". This means that you will have even more cables prancing around your rig, which can be a deal-breaker for some, but there is definitely a market for this kind of products, even if you have to deal with some additional wiring.
Finally, in regards to specifications and pricing, we have:
