Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 58681, member: 636"] Corsair faces a $5.5 million settlement after customers filed a 2022 class-action lawsuit over memory marketing practices. The lawsuit claimed the company advertised DDR4-3600 and DDR5-6400 speeds without clearly explaining that these numbers required overclocking activation through BIOS settings. Default memory speeds remain much lower at DDR4-2133 and DDR5-4800 unless users manually enable performance profiles that may not work on all systems. Corsair agreed to pay eligible U.S. customers who purchased affected memory kits between 2018 and 2025 while updating product packaging to specify advertised speeds as maximum performance requiring overclocking. Customers can submit up to five claims through the settlement website [ICODE]ddr4andddr5desktopmemoryspeedsettlement.com[/ICODE] before the October 28, 2025, deadline, with final court approval scheduled for December 4, 2025.
