hell I bet some RAM has lighted coolers now

Every single RAM manufacturer has an RGB variant, it's been pretty common for like a decade now. You can even get dummy sticks that just have the lights.

Fortunately, going dark isn't too difficult. Non-RGB fans are easy to come by and usually a bit cheaper. You can also just not connect them to the RGB headers. RAM is also cheaper in non-RGB variants. The only issues might be motherboard and GPU, though there's a bunch of GPUs with no lighting at all and are also cheaper (ASUS Prime 9070xt has no lights), and most BIOSes have an option to turn it all off.
