I purchased some DDR5 Trident RGB Memory from GSkill. Unfortunately, the heatsink for this RAM is silver - I'd like for it to be white.
So... I was thinking about ordering Corsair's Vengeance RGB Pro Light Enhancement Kit. My idea is to remove the heatsink from this kit and replace the heatsink on my GSkill memory. Would this work?
My understanding is that the RGB is part of the RAM stick - and not the heatsink. Thus, it seems to me that after removing the GSkill heatsink I could replace it with the Corsair heatsink and it would work?
To make absolutely clear what I'm thinking of doing, more details follow.
This is the memory I purchased on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09MYK7BVZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Note that the heatsink is silver and black. I want the heatsink to be white. I prefer not to spray paint the existing heat sink.

My thoughts are to remove the heat sink from my GSkill memory and from the Corsair faux memory. Then, I would replace the silver/black GSkill heatsink with the white Corsair heatsink.
Would this work?
