Often, It has been hard to get soem intersesting Memory for your custom case. Some memory has a UV surface which shows up nicely in cases but other than that there hasn't been much for Modders to work with. Now Corsair Memory's latest RAM sports a 10 character LED display that delivers temperature, speed and voltage...or it can display your customized message.

It could be useful in some cases but I think it would look out of place in most cases. But this might just be the thing you want to see through your window. A bit steep at US$499.

it performs pretty good, however they say the catch with this ram is the LEDs, leading into a high price. I really dont miss that LED display from my computer (however I have their twinxl with activity leds which is the best). for less, you could get an ocz platinum rev2 with better overclock but without the fancy display which would be a lot better choice imo.

if they wanted to make some money they would simply have a port on the ram and a bay device with a cable, have th einfo in front of you where you can freaking read it, also those dont fit in an SFF case

I am sure that they even don't fit in some full size rigs
