Upgraded my RAM to 16GB, purchased Crucial Ballistix Tactical Tracer 16GB Kit (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 UDIMM... thinking it was just regular RAM.
Fun part? The running blue LED lights on each stick that matches perfectly the blue lights of the Vanquish. Didn't even know until I fired up the machine. Unexpectedly cool. |

temps dropped due to sheer awesomeness... and the mod that DST4ME referenced makes it just that much cooler.
If you're getting RAM and you want something cool to look at, too, then these are your sticks. Edited by Snaike - 01 Jul 2016 at 10:29am |
