V-Color Launches 1+1 DDR5 Kits for AM5 With RGB Filler Modules

The package combines one active module with an RGB dummy to preserve a two-slot look during a period of higher DDR5 prices.

Overview

  • The Manta DDR5 XSky and XFinity packs come in 16GB and 24GB options, with launch configurations starting at DDR5‑6400, according to Tom's Hardware.
  • Each bundle includes one working DIMM and a matching non‑DRAM RGB stick that can later be expanded to a 2+2 setup for a full four‑slot appearance.
  • V-Color is positioning the kits for AMD Ryzen/AM5 gaming builds and claims a single DDR5 module can deliver up to 30% more gaming performance than older dual‑DDR4 setups.
  • Global availability is slated to begin soon through official partners including Newegg, though pricing and firm dates have not been provided.
  • Tom's Hardware underscores that dual‑channel remains preferable for peak performance and notes V-Color has not detailed timings or broader XMP/EXPO support.
