A Closer Look

XPG is well-known for stunning gamer-focused aesthetics, and the new memory kit is certainly no exception. While the XPG Lancer is an RGB memory kit, it’s not the only design focus, and the modules look really stylish even with the lights off. The heat spreaders are a little taller, giving them a huge surface area to dissipate heat too, which should ensure they can maintain their performance. The kit we have is a 6000MHz model, but as is often the case, quite a few variants are available, from 5200 MT/s to 7200 MT/s, with various latencies and capacities too (all detailed here).

The heatsink is black anodized aluminium with a brushed metal finish, and this left section has been etched into to expose the raw aluminium underneath it, which looks pretty gorgeous I have to say.

The other side has a larger area of black, but the brushed metal lines still flow parallel to the other side, and the XPG is etched into it too, exposing more of the aluminium. Of course, the PCB is black too, but that’s pretty much standard these days, can’t recall the last time I saw a green or blue PCB on any memory product really.

Down the spine, you can see there is a lightbar running the length, with the aluminium folded over about 1mm on the ends to secure that in place, but there’s a larger exposed section that forms a triangle on the sides of the modules, with a nice XPG logo on the top.

Installed in the system, they look stunning, with those lines and the black and white practically putting the modules in a shirt and tie-like style.

As I said before, they look really nice even with the RGB turned off, but let’s get this system powered up for a better look.

Look at those colours! I mean, a compressed photo on a web browser strips them of some of their shine, and I’d wager most of you haven’t calibrated your monitor’s colours as well as ours, but even then, I bet these colours look pretty nice. Overall, they get top marks for build quality and aesthetics here.

I don’t have them here, but there is a non-RGB version which just comes with a black insert on the top and honestly, I think they look pretty stunning too. Style is subjective though, and you’ll have a choice of these with RGB or without.

And then the same choice again, but in white!
