CORSAIR Memory Packaging Update

Last updated:

As DRAM prices continue to rise, protecting product authenticity has become increasingly important. That’s why we have updated our DRAM packaging, focusing on security and transparency while retaining environmental responsibility.

New CORSAIR DRAM Packaging

Since early January, we have been introducing new packaging across all the VENGEANCE DDR5 (non-RGB, RGB and RGB RS) SKUs in a 2-module configuration. The packaging of these series are transitioning from traditional cardboard boxes to a sealed plastic clamshell made from recycled plastic (the new material provides ESD protection as well.)

This design allows customers to see the actual memory modules before opening the package. Making it easier to confirm the exact product and helping ensure genuine CORSAIR DRAM is being returned when applicable.

To further improve protection, the packaging includes a tamper-evident belly label that tears when opened, making any attempt to reseal the package immediately visible. With the current value of DRAM kits, this added layer of security helps protect customers and retailers from return fraud involving non-genuine modules, or Light Enhancement Kits being passed off as real RAM.

Some DRAM SKUs may still be using the paper box format but we are reintroducing a security label on the box to provide higher protection. This update will roll out soon, aligning those SKUs’ packaging with the same security goals while preserving its familiar presentation.

Security First, Sustainability Included

The updated packaging prioritizes product integrity and customer confidence in a higher-value DRAM market, while still using recycled materials to reduce environmental impact.
