GALAX HOF Extreme Limited Edition Chrome-Plated DDR4 Modules Now Available

[Raevenlord]

GALAX has seemingly found itself in a profitable market position with its products marketed for the premium enthusiast, with their (perspective depending) bold good looks and out of the ordinary propositions for new products. Now, the company has announced an extremely limited edition kit (really; there are just 50 of these) of DDR4 memory, aptly named the HOF Extreme Limited Edition. The "Extreme Performance" engraving on the aluminum heat spreaders serves as a psychological reminder for the kits that they just "gotta go fast", and should put to rest concerns regarding memory performance.

Under the heatspreaders rest handpicked Samsung B-die chips, which should guarantee better performance and stability compared to other memory dies (particularly in the AMD Ryzen platform). The modules are available for direct purchase from the GALAX store, and the company is currently offering a 20% discount for users who have previously acquired one of the company's GALAX GTX 1080Ti OC Lab Edition. The kits are available in 16 GB (2x 8GB) dual-channel pairs, and orders will receive free shipping with an estimated shipping date towards the end of the month. The kits run at particularly impressive speeds of 4133MHz, with CL 19-21-21-41 timings, at 1.35V. Pricing is slightly less limited in this product, though; a dual-channel kit will set you back some $368 (around $294 if you have previously bought the OC Lab Edition GTX 1080 Ti.)

Trying to get in on some of the Corsair action

Galax: "Hey, how'd those special, limited edition, blackout, chrome, and torque modules work out for you and the team?"
Corsair:"Awesome, just bought the team and their spouses some gold plated gold as gifts from the shareholders."

Galax:"Wow, sounds pretty lucrative"
Corsair:"Yeah, people will buy anything if it's marketed as a limited supply and burp fed to the supply chains."

Corsair:"Anyways, gotta run. Nickle plated gold car is pulling up..."

WTH, no RGB to go along with that chrome plating ?

How dare they even consider doing this....

FYI, in case you haven't figured it out already, I am being sarcastic here.....

Can we stop with these posts in every thread about a new product that doesn't have RGB?

So RAM prices aren't inflated enough already? We have to add precious metals to them too?

Word: NO

I can post whatever I want, as long as it isn't obscene or disrespectful or somehow violating the forum rules, for which I dont think my opinions or sarcasm fall into that category.

Having said that, I wish you all the best in your quest to become the "posting police"... Go for it....
