I remember the Transformers cartoons from childhood. I never watched them. They seemed silly. Well, it seems that a lot of adults are still at that level, given the existence of products like this.
Grow up, please. Intel needs to stop putting skulls on SSDs and memory makers need to stop selling "kits" (a sad joke to someone who actually built a kit computer) of Transformers toys.
Why should people not like these things? What does it do to you? If you want green PCB RAM just buy those, you aren't forced to buy this memory kit or any other similar looking kit.
Ironically, people who are bothered by trivial things - like the look of a memory stick - are the ones showing childish mentality, and the ones needing to ''grow up'' :)
''Look at me! I'm so mature that even as child I refused to watch Transformers! Can I have a cookie now, mommy? Didn't I prove I'm a big boy???'' lol
But, to be fair, it's always entertaining to see people pretending to be more mature than they actually are (it's called ''psychological projection'', btw) on the internet, with comments like those.
Awkwardly designed heatspreaders are easy to fix, at least there is no RGB here. I'm writing this to the kids - RGB operates on electricity and those electrical signals interfere with RAM chips, generate heat etc. What's the point of this publication if there is no mention of the price?
First off Teamgroup, that "transformers" badge, is their Branding, they have been using such for many years now.
much less silly than others I have seen

RGB to use enough electricity to create enough heat and/or interfere with DRAM signalling, would have to be very power hungry, I have never ever heard of this when it is built on the RAM sticks directly, as it uses such small amount of power in the first place.
they are micro lights, not full power bulbs afterall, would suck if they were using full wattage lights, that is for sure..given how much power goes through the ram sockets, likely is only in the mV range, i.e very !@# unlikely to cause problems
(honestly, person who staid that bit, that is first time I have EVER heard anyone say that fluff..forum after forum for many years, never heard that LOL
I would imagine, the companies who produce it, would not be doing so if it would cause problems down the line, seeing as product sent back to them (RMA) from such failures would NOT be beneficial for business.
I do agree though, at least there is no RGB on them, they look pretty decent, but sadly nothing out of the "normal" compared to every other vendor out there, just different ram sinks, black PCB..could look a lot worse, timings are "mehh" as well IMO

I agree tbh. The stylised fins do look pretty stupid, or aimed at 12 year olds.BTW in Transformers' defence, they can get away with it, the original cartoons are pretty decent.

Although they don't have RGB, it is a disappointment that the metal decorative bits look silly.dotted - Saturday, March 28, 2020 - link
