It's nice Corsair jump on Samsung B-Die imc train .

3000-cl14 samsung b die ddr4 ran successfully at 3866mhz speed on my z170 hero. and these rams are very good for overclocking. look at hwbot samsung b die thread.

Hmm, would not mind a red set of these!

Waiting for review. Those rams do look like Avexir Core series though.

Wasn't it Corsair itself who started this bullshit? Give me notification LEDS anytime, but this belongs in the X-mas trees section for those with excessive time to look at shiny lights. lol... Just like backlights of keyboards: 1 colour is useful, but a godam circus of different moving LEDs is like HELL.

It just wasn't Corsair who had activity lights on their rams(on their XMS DDR1 line up), you are forgetting Crucial Tracer line of rams. Also Geil had leds on their RAMs but it used to be single LED stuck in middle of ram.

sorry, ok, i am not aware of the whole market, this is only a hobby for me, thanks for sharing the real story as it was!

I could be wrong but I believe we were first, with the Corsair XMS Pro series in 2003.

Good point. Back then it didn't really catch on, but now, we're in LED hell - even my beloved Intel 750 series AIC SSD has blinking LEDs on the IO plate! Power supplies, RAM kits, cases, motherboards, video cards, what's next? SATA cables with EL wire? EDIT - Crap! They're already here! http://www.jab-tech.com/10-18-and-24-uv-and-el-wire-sata-cables/ I give up!

I still dont remember who did it first with LED lights on Rams whether it was Corsair's XMS Pro or Crucial's tracer. Although in my first PC(that I built personally) I had initially used Crucial Ballistix Rams which failed and their bad after sales support left a bad taste for that brand so I had to switch to 1GB(512MB*2) DDR 400 kit of XMS Pro which lasted me through 4 years I used that PC for. Also Geil was quite late to LED lit rams with their Dragon series based on DDR2 platform.

Wow, when did we jump to 4666? lol..
Wonder if that helps in today's gaming, vs say 2133.

Yeah, I forgot about Crucial. They were lighting up RAM over 10 years ago.

But this review seems to hint that Corsair was first: http://www.legionhardware.com/articles_pages/crucial_ballistix_tracer_2gb_pc2_6400_ddr2_800,1.html

"The way in which Crucial has installed these LED’s does not look as impressive as the Corsair implementation."
