Taking memory "RGB" to the next level

I was staring at my build and an idea came to me. What if the top of ram heat spreaders had screens so that if you had 4 sticks right next to each other, you could show some type of animation. You could maybe extend it with a screen on a water cooler heatsink/pump. Does anyone else think this would be a cool idea?

in all honesty It would be kind of cool but i personally wouldn't buy it over what i am considering as i love the look of the Team T-Force Night Hawk RGB

But why? There is a CPU block that can display a GIF or an image that Linus showcased at CEX.

 

The easiest solution would be to get a $20 7" display off Aliexpress, plug it into HDMI out of your GPU and have a secondary monitor inside your case for temps and all that.

hi.
