As DRAM prices continue to rise, companies such as Corsair are facing increased pressure from scammers seeking to exploit consumers. To address this issue, Corsair has updated the packaging for its popular Vengeance DDR5 series.

The new design features a transparent clamshell packaging, making it easier for customers to inspect the product before purchasing. Corsair stated that this change not only increases visibility but also enhances security, aiming to minimize counterfeit products.

Corsair explained that “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.”

The company is implementing a tamper-evident label as part of the packaging improvements. This label will show any signs of tampering once opened, helping to protect retailers and customers from fraud.

These security measures come in response to incidents where customers received products different from what they ordered, reflecting the challenges faced in the current memory market. Corsair’s new approach aims to instill confidence in customers purchasing high-value DRAM products.
