Purchased four RAM modules from Ebay; two stopped the PC from functioning properly, so I received a refund. They advised keeping the damaged units. I’ve reviewed some online discussions and think I should interrupt the electrical signals that transmit data while preserving power and RGB settings. By examining images of fake RAM, I can identify which connections to remove. For the metal removal, high-grit sandpaper seems like the most reliable method, though I’m willing to try other approaches if needed.

He refers to removing the pads, suggesting you might need electrical tape or another method to prevent contact between the pads and pins. I believe using a substance like plastidip to cover the pins could be effective.
