Screens have appeared on mice, keyboards, coolers, and even fans, but now they’re coming to DDR5 RAM sticks. V-color and Gigabyte are teaming up on the XFinity+ DDR5 series, the first modules with an integrated OLED panel to show live performance stats right on the memory itself.
DDR5 RAM sticks target gamers and overclockers
Marketed for “overclockers, gamers, and DIY enthusiasts,” the new kits will ship in 32 GB, 48 GB, and 64 GB capacities. They support both Intel XMP and AMD EXPO profiles, with transfer rates up to 9,066 MT/s on Intel and 9,000 MT/s on AMD. Timing support varies: AMD users get CL26 on 32 GB kits, while Intel sees CL38.
Each set includes one OLED-equipped stick and one standard stick, since only one side of a build is visible. V-color and Gigabyte also teased future four-module kits, which will combine two working sticks with two RGB filler units.

OLED adds real-time performance to DDR5 RAM sticks
The OLED screen sits on the right edge of the module, displaying real-time data such as:
- Active memory profile (Intel/AMD)
- Capacity and speed
- Timings
- Voltage levels
- Module temperature
The display even works during POST, not just inside the OS. On Gigabyte motherboards, the modules run without extra connectors or cables. Compatibility with other boards is unclear and might require additional hardware.
RGB lighting rounds out customization
Like most high-end DDR5 kits, these sticks also feature RGB lighting, configurable through Gigabyte Control Center. That means the OLED display doesn’t sacrifice visual flair.
Price and availability
The modules will ship in both black and white finishes. Mass production begins in Q3 2025, with initial sales exclusive to Newegg. Later, they’ll expand to Amazon, the official V-color store, and other retail channels. Pricing hasn’t been revealed yet, but given the OLED feature, expect them to cost more than standard DDR5 RAM sticks.
With XFinity+, V-color, and Gigabyte aren’t just selling speed; they’re making DDR5 RAM sticks smarter, with live monitoring right on the module itself.
