This CES 2017 segment showcases Corsair’s Vengeance RGB memory and the new lighting control features. The host notes that Corsair has added RGB lighting to high-speed DDR4 memory modules, emphasizing their 4266 MHz capability on Intel’s Z270 platform. The coverage points out that the RGB implementation relies on Corsair’s Link software, with compatibility across Z170, Z270, and X99, and notes that Ryzen support is in development. The narration explains that the included software is still in beta, offering color cycling profiles and per-module color options, though true cross-module synchronization remains limited in this early stage. The host also mentions that Corsair’s RGB memory won’t be broadly available until the first quarter of the year, but there are tips for attendees to disable the demo and walk away with the kit. The segment closes with a plug for FreshBooks, the sponsor, highlighting its ease of use for freelancers and small business owners, followed by a brief outro from the host. Overall, the presentation blends product enthusiasm with practical caveats about early software maturity and cross-module effects, signaling ambitious RGB aspirations for next-generation RAM and PC builds.
