Team Group settles $1.1M DRAM speed false advertising lawsuit

Team Group has agreed to a $1.1 million settlement to resolve a class-action lawsuit alleging false advertising of DRAM speeds. The lawsuit claimed that the advertised speeds for Team Group's DDR3, DDR4, and DDR5 memory products could only be achieved by enabling XMP or EXPO profiles through BIOS tweaks, rather than out of the box. While Team Group denies wrongdoing, the settlement allows eligible consumers who purchased these products in the U.S. between May 2020 and April 2026 to file a claim for compensation. This case is similar to a recent $2.4 million settlement involving G.Skill for comparable allegations. AI

IMPACT This settlement highlights issues in how memory performance is advertised, which can indirectly affect the perceived performance of AI hardware and systems.

RANK_REASON Settlement of a consumer lawsuit regarding product advertising.
