From tomshardware.comThe best RAM on the market has become extremely expensive and out of reach for most consumers since the global memory shortage began. Fortunately, V-Color has stepped in to save the day. The company has announced its 1+1 value packs, which cleverly include one real memory module alongside a matching filler module. Even if your budget only allows you to purchase a single real memory module, you can still achieve the look of a dual-module setup in your build.
Filler modules, more commonly known as dummy modules, have become a popular accessory for PC builders in recent years. Corsair pioneered the trend when it launched its Light Enhancement Kits (LEKs), giving consumers an affordable way to populate all the empty memory slots on their motherboards. These visually identical replicas of authentic memory modules enhance the overall appearance of systems, helping consumers achieve that coveted, fully equipped look. Their sole purpose is cosmetic, though. While they light up and synchronize with your existing RGB ecosystem, they don't contribute to your computer’s memory capacity or performance.
Despite the growing importance of aesthetics in PC building, few memory vendors have fully embraced the concept of dummy or filler memory modules. V-Color is the only brand that has invested significantly in the idea. The company not only offers filler modules as standalone packs but also includes them as additional accessories in some of its existing memory kits. Today's announcement marks the launch of new 1+1 DDR5 memory kits designed specifically for AMD systems.
That's silly.
