The iGame Shadow DDR5 memory kits feature a distinctive aluminum alloy heatsink with an artistic flair that pays homage to Chinese cultural artistry. Designed not only for visual appeal, the heatsink also plays a critical role in heat dissipation, ensuring optimal performance during demanding workloads. The addition of ARGB lighting, which synchronizes seamlessly with other components via the iGame Center software, allows users to customize their setups to match their personal style.
