Purple Ram?

[TheNuzziNuzz]

Does anyone know of any purple DDR4 RAM. I need 4-8 GB duel slot. I don't really care about much else, color is what I care about.

Your best bet is probably going to be painting the heat spreader

 

Or contracting it for someone else to paint, it shouldn't be too expensive to spray paint a chunk of metal

Painting it yourself isn't too hard look at one of Linus's guides.

Get a decent stick of ram, I recommend the Corsair Vengeance LPX Memory, its a good price for 16GB DDR4 @ 3200mhz.

Once you get some ram, you're gonna wanna remove or replace the heat sink. remove the contact pads for reuse, and Spray paint the heat sink in purple paint.

Re apply the heat sink, or get some third party heat sink on the cheap and get that in purple, or paint it.

 

NOTE: Make sure the paint is electronic friendly, don't want to cause issues. also make sure it doesn't impact heat dissipation.

Okay, So it seems I should just get some white ram. Any Ideas?

I doubt you'll find ram with white heat sinks. I realize you aren't building this for much computing power, so I would recommend a 4GB set from G. Skill at a low clock speed. Get a 3rd party heat sink replacement in white, and paint that with some of this spray.

Paint them with this:

recommended heat sink was actually horribly reviewed

I know you already marked this as solved, but here's the best answer I can think of (not cheap though)

 

You'll Need:

-Corsair Dominator RAM

-Corsair Light Bar Kit (One kit for every two sticks of RAM)

-MainFrame Customs Lightbar Inserts (You can get purple) - https://mainframecustom.com/shop/accessories/light-bar-inserts/

 

It'll look super good, but it won't be the most cost effective solution.

Another DIY route would be to sand the top silver bars down a tiny bit, and pain them purple with spraypaint. It's stupid overkill, but to guarantee safety at all temps I used Engine Enamel spraypaint for all my components that get hot (GPU Heatsink, RAM Spreaders etc...) usually rated for up to 500 F
