Question Why is my Right RAM Stick Red?
I had solid color red for a few days on signal rgb, is it a potential burn in maybe?

You can find the g-skill app for rgb control or try to re-apply your lighting profile, I had the same issues, should get the job done

The blue LEDs in that part are probably dead. You can check by setting solid red, then solid green, then solid blue and check for gaps to see which LEDs are gone.

Looks like it got infected by a virus. Good thing it hasnāt spread to the other ram stick yet.

The B in RGB stands for blue. The blue led in that bit died. If you change it to pure blue that section of strip will probably just be off. Every color that uses the blue LED will look a bit off there

The only prerequisite is having an RGB/aRGB component with dead blue LEDs, it's actually pretty common. It's not "if" a blue LED will die, it's more of a "when" it'll die.

If itās Corsair Iāve had this issue with their fans. One portion will be a different colour for a while and then eventually change. Like other people have suggested, a faulty light.

One of your blue LED's have left the realms of mortals.
Blue LED's lifespan are just shorter.
I have a keyboard that is fully RGB, and about 10 different keys have lost the blue LED.

I didnāt know they weāre shorter, thanks.

I think technically they shouldn't, but it's just very apparent that blue LEDs tend to be the first to die in an RGB house.

If you're using SignalRGB or another lighting control software, it could mean that the light isn't being detected properly.

Then the software is having issues with your RAM stick. I'd double check that it's showing up on your layout and you have the part set up correctly in SignalRGB.
When it happens to me it usually goes away after I restart fwiw.

It is RGB Ram, it can have multiple colors.
Just use the proper Software to set it up.

Its going to blow up, early signs of a RAM Explosion, You need to quickly shut off the PC and immediately take out the RAM stick. Once done, set the RAM stick in an area that is at least 28 Metres away from the nearest person and call your local bomb squad... /s

Well I wasnāt really sure what the issue was exactly I referred to it like OLED burn in like if u leave an image on for an extended period of time it will stay like that or at least still be slightly visible.

Likely a faulty blue light. That would make purple/magenta turn red. Try setting it to just blue
