Thermalright's memory (ram) lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here.

Key Features
- [Low-Noise Operation] Despite a speed of up to 3200 RPM, thanks to noise reduction design, the maximum operating noise is only 20.17 dBA, providing strong static pressure while maintaining quiet operation, without affecting gaming immersion.
- [Vibrant ARGB Lighting Effects] The front and sides feature wrap-around RGB light strips, with a 3-pin 5V ARGB connector for ARGB daisy-chain control, enabling synchronization with most mainstream motherboard lighting software for immersive RGB atmosphere.
- [Superior Bearing] Utilizes Thermalright's second-generation S-FDB (Fluid Dynamic Bearing), which offers lower friction and reduced heat generation compared to traditional bearings, ensuring long-term stability during high-speed operation and extending product lifespan.
- [Excellent Compatibility] The compact dimensions (120 x 60 x 25 mm) ensure that when installed above the motherboard, it does not interfere with the fins of most air coolers, perfectly fitting standard desktop motherboards with 4 memory slots.
- [Easy Installation] No complex tools or skills required—simply secure the clips on both sides to the memory module. Suitable for DDR/DDR2/DDR3/DDR4/DDR5 and various memory types, providing additional active cooling protection and enhancing overclocking potential.
