Summary Consumer Protection & Market Transparency Advocates
The Tom's Hardware article critically reports on deceptive RAM product bundling practices where manufacturers pair non-functional 'fake' RAM with genuine components to create false performance value. The reporting advocates for consumer protection, transparent commerce, and informed market participation by exposing manufacturer deception during supply shortage. The freely accessible article supports freedom of expression and broad information access about technology market integrity.
Rights Tensions 2 pairs
Art 12 ↔ Art 19 — The article advocates for consumer privacy and information protection (Article 12) against deceptive marketing, while the site's own ad tracking infrastructure (per DCP) contradicts this privacy advocacy, creating tension between editorial freedom to criticize deception and structural compliance with consumer privacy.
Art 17 ↔ Art 23 — The article defends consumer property rights to genuine product value (Article 17) while acknowledging industry supply constraints (Article 23 labor/work context), creating tension between consumer protection and manufacturer viability during shortage.

This article seems a bit dramatic in it's title? People have purchased "blank" RAM for years for the aesthetic of it. I do not personally see the point, but I also don't have motherboards with unpopulated RAM slots. If a company wants to sell a kit that is 50/50, I am not sure that is actually a problem.
wolvoleo 2026-03-14 12:14 UTC link
At least they are upfront about it.

I don't see the point though even for a gaming setup, as the fake modules will still reduce airflow.

Also, gaming boards usually have 4 slots (in 2 banks). I would fill at least 2, so I'd rather have a matched kit of 2 modules, and 2 separate fillers, if I did use them.

It is quite common to leave 2 memory slots empty (of RAM) because many boards can't drive the memory at top speed if you use all 4 slots.

RobotToaster 2026-03-14 12:27 UTC link
I don't get it.

Isn't 2x8gb faster than 1x16gb since it will run in dual channel?

And shouldn't smaller capacity sticks be cheaper since they can use lower density chips?

debo_ 2026-03-14 12:30 UTC link
We should call the fake stick "NAM" for "no access memory." Then you can tell your kids that they couldn't possibly understand, man, because they weren't _there_.
JonChesterfield 2026-03-14 13:35 UTC link
Bad idea. I would be very angry to discover I've bought this. Customer support are going to get shouted at and products returned.

Why haven't prebuilt PC market been doing this to hide the fact they are using a single RAM stick?

I miss the days when most people had a vanilla looking computer. You wouldn't have felt out of place at the LAN party lugging in your dad's old Packard Bell tower that you used for your gaming rig.

We still appreciated visually stunning PCs. Not just for the works of art that they were, but also for the DIY skill and ethic you were actually required to demonstrate to build and mod them.

Nowadays, it's all just "RGB by default". By my angry old man standards, it looks gauche. Then again, I suppose it's the new vanilla?

alpaca128 2026-03-14 14:15 UTC link
Can't wait for people to buy two of these sets, take the real RAM sticks and refund the two fake ones in one package. There's no way the seller is going to manually check every returned stick.
dsign 2026-03-14 14:17 UTC link
Slight tangent, I found this chart for the prices of RAM:

https://pcpartpicker.com/trends/price/memory/

It's not looking good, I don't think supply is catching with demand yet.

Though the other day I learned there are many technologies for "RAM", and most of them are garbage for LLMs but still useful for other things, like microcontrollers. So I'm thinking my next "build" is going to be a guitar.

Could these actually be functionally useful or are they purely aesthetic?

For example, dust can short out electrical connections. Can enough dust get into an open RAM slot to cause problems?

How about we use all that AI and start doing some serious optimizations to existing software? Reduce memory requirements by half, or even more.

It's not a new thing, it's a common way to fill empty slots for aesthetic purposes, especially with RGB builds in aquarium cases.

Wow... never really realized people actually used these things and didn't just chuck them after opening their RAM>

A few months ago I upgraded a Windows laptop I use in my 3d printer studio from 32gb to 64gb. I let the memory I pulled out sit on the desk, and just got around to selling it last week. I sold it on eBay for twice what the 64gb kit cost new. In almost 30 years of upgrading all sorts of machines, I can't remember if I've ever performed an upgrade and turned a profit out of it.
ajnin 2026-03-14 19:50 UTC link
This article is using "fake" for click-bait purposes, implying some kind of scam, in fact it's just a filler RGB stick to make pretty lights inside your case, nothing nefarious about it and it's clear when you buy, but probably wouldn't be featured on HN without it.
ProllyInfamous 2026-03-14 20:59 UTC link
This seems to happen sometimes with Big Box tools, brand new out of the box: the two battery toolset will have cells from different lots (presumably:) one known to work, the other questionable... you did still get two batteries for those tools, but it sure does seem like the same one is always charging.

I've had this happen both from Amazon and HD/L.

Apropos to nothing, PC Builder Simulator on Steam costs $19.99 USD and it requires a Windows machine with just 4GB RAM and a GPU with 2GB.

First time hearing about this, it's pretty dramatic for me. I grew up in times when computers were off-white and we liked it.
daneel_w 2026-03-14 12:18 UTC link
And stuffing your PC case with various disco lights doesn't affect its performance either. But an evidently large portion of gamers are, well, special people.
officialchicken 2026-03-14 12:32 UTC link
Think of it as RGB lighting in DIMM format and it makes a lot more nonsense.
barishnamazov 2026-03-14 12:33 UTC link
Nobody really buys 8gb sticks anymore, so selling 2x8gb isn't economically great. Also, there are more factors than just density in RAM pricing, but it really depends on the vendor and chip layout design.
gzread 2026-03-14 12:58 UTC link
They couldn't possibly understand NAM, man
exabrial 2026-03-14 13:04 UTC link
Up to a certain point and It’s actually very dependent on the CPU.

Take Epyc processors. On certain ones, after certain RAM amount, populating all the slots causes the cpu to kick the RAM speed to a lower tier.

You’re then limited to capacities of two sticks.

Weird, but it has to do with power requirements. Abutting above the threshold had to be buffered, which increases latency.

duskdozer 2026-03-14 13:45 UTC link
Lots of two-packs followed by one-returns.
colechristensen 2026-03-14 13:49 UTC link
If you read the article it shows the packaging and is incredibly obvious that one of them is RAM and the other one is filler.

some_random 2026-03-14 14:17 UTC link
Yes but if you want to upgrade later buying another 1x16gb is cheaper than buying 2x16gb and throwing out your 2x8gb (although it's a bit contrived since most motherboards have 4 slots).
bonoboTP 2026-03-14 14:19 UTC link
Why won't they check? It says it on the stick with text. It doesn't look identical.

dom96 2026-03-14 14:35 UTC link
Super interesting charts there. What's really interesting to me is that the GPU prices (which also includes RAM) didn't see such a massive increase in price as the RAM itself. Anyone know why that is?

Surely this will be helped by a helium supply shock.

codethief 2026-03-14 15:09 UTC link
Jeez, that whole website…
Fluorescence 2026-03-14 15:13 UTC link
For the same spec it's likely to be a different chip count rather than density. In theory two sticks could have higher bom... not that consumers would see such savings given the price segmentation where the appetite for higher capacities has deeper pockets.

Have recent boards/cpus fixed the instability problems people had with 4 sticks of DDR5 yet?

I was shocked when I saw folk saying you can't use 4 slots. It would mean that a one stick build would have an upgrade path but if you started with 2, you'd have to replace them.

cyanydeez 2026-03-14 15:15 UTC link
LLMs are intrinsically deaigned for token production, which is typically inversely related to optimization and efficoency.
TeMPOraL 2026-03-14 15:29 UTC link
Plenty of people do.

AI is one of the few major general technological breakthroughs, comparable to the Internet and electricity. It's potentially applicable to everything, which is why right now everyone is trying to apply it to everything. Including developing new optimization algorithms, optimizing optimizing compilers, optimizing applications, optimizing systems, optimizing hardware, ...

Big AI vendors are at the forefront of it, because they're the ones who actually pay for the AI revolution, so any efficiency improvement saves them money.

Fluorescence 2026-03-14 15:30 UTC link
I would love to have blanks for every unused socket/port to keep dust out.

I'm just too cheap to pay for them though...

I’m also “old” (44) and feel that rainbow LEDs are gaudy.

Seems these days that they’re not optional for most things remotely gaming related (e.g. motherboards, graphics cards) , but fortunately can generally be disabled or if illumination is useful (e.g for a keyboard), they can be configured to be white only, which was useful for the Steel Series keyboard I purchased. (I wouldn’t recommend Steel Series keyboards though, has stupid design choices and reliability issues.)

Also did LAN gaming back in the day. Computers were so much more work to lug around when you had a CRT and HDDs. These days desktop computers are far easier to transport.
