PC memory specialist G.Skill has agreed to pay out 2.4 million dollars to settle a class action lawsuit. The suit claimed that G.Skill advertised the operating speeds of various DDR4 and DDR5 RAM kits "deceptively" over a period from January 2018 to January 2026.

Rather than fight the case in court, G.Skill has settled with the class action plaintiffs, with the company agreeing to the multi-million payout while also denying any and all wrongdoing. According to court papers (via Tom's Hardware), the settlement applies to "All individuals in the United States who purchased one or more G.Skill DDR-4 and DDR-5 DRAM (non-laptop) memory products with rated speeds over 2133 MHz or 4800 MHz respectively from January 31, 2018 to January 7, 2026."
