WEBVTT

00:00:00.399 --> 00:00:08.280
so today we'll be doing a quick unboxing of a memory kit and I saw this and I

00:00:05.720 --> 00:00:12.679
just had to unbox it cuz it's so like shiny and cool looking i' I've never

00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:17.439
seen Corsair's packaging that looks like this so they've completely redesigned

00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:22.279
the packaging for the Dominator GTS it is now like three times well not three

00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:26.800
times it's a little bit taller and then they've also worked in like a bubble in

00:00:24.880 --> 00:00:31.320
the clam shell for their Dominator airflow fan which is a special edition

00:00:29.199 --> 00:00:36.559
Dominator GT T1 cuz you can see that the stickers are red that makes it go faster

00:00:34.440 --> 00:00:41.440
and the red on the modules also makes them go faster so there you go now

00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:45.280
through the back of the box you can now see the serial numbers for all of the

00:00:43.120 --> 00:00:49.719
RAM modules that's a a change they've made lately and I'm I'm not sure exactly

00:00:47.760 --> 00:00:52.920
why but it doesn't really matter so you can see there are three sticks in there

00:00:51.800 --> 00:00:57.079
they talk a little bit about the Dominator GT family it represents the

00:00:54.840 --> 00:01:00.719
ultimate and performance technology uh their Dominator GTS actually weren't

00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:05.600
even available at res sellers to start with and they are hand tested okay let's

00:01:03.160 --> 00:01:10.000
here we go the optional airflow fan not really optional when it's included right

00:01:07.119 --> 00:01:13.320
in the Box But it includes 2 60 mm fans to provide impinging air flow to the

00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:18.159
memory subsystem that sounds Hightech anyway

00:01:16.400 --> 00:01:23.799
all right let's get this thing open here we go I'm going

00:01:20.280 --> 00:01:23.799
to unbox

00:01:23.960 --> 00:01:30.040
it okay well how don't we do the fan first I think I've had a look at the

00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:33.720
Dominator airflow fan before but for for the benefit of anyone who hasn't already

00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:38.560
seen my unboxing of the Dominator airflow I might as well just uh unbox it

00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:43.840
on account of this is a special edition red one anyhow all right here we go if I

00:01:42.600 --> 00:01:48.240
could get it out of the bubble wrap there we go okay so on the bottom we

00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:53.680
find there two fan Clips which I'm not a huge fan of having to attach these

00:01:50.680 --> 00:01:56.719
yourself get it a fan um but you take

00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:59.000
these these thumb screws and then you

00:01:56.719 --> 00:02:03.159
position yeah it's really awkward you position these under here and then you

00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:07.399
actually screw the thumb screws in from the top to attach the two clamps and

00:02:05.520 --> 00:02:11.080
then you put the clamps over your over your memory slots and it kind of looks

00:02:09.160 --> 00:02:14.319
like that from the top down I mean they've got a really nice finish on this

00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:18.120
thing nice brushed aluminum finish to the top plate the fans are they're

00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:22.440
reasonably quiet they're better than the old Dominator uh airflow module but uh

00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:26.800
they're still not the quietest thing in the world although you can turn them

00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:31.280
down and they use a reasonably good quality sleeving on the fan sleeve here

00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:36.560
it's not the best I've seen but it's a lot better than what you tend to see on

00:02:33.160 --> 00:02:38.280
on a typical cheap fan all right they've

00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:41.519
blacked out the uh the stickers on the bottom here so that you can't see what

00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:47.400
brand the fans are but it doesn't really matter all right there we go that was

00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:52.640
the airflow module now let's bring out the actual oh I get it wow I'm stupid

00:02:50.480 --> 00:02:58.319
I've seen this pack before all they did is they took this pack and a fan and

00:02:55.480 --> 00:03:06.959
they put it together ah very clever course there touche all right so how do

00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:09.599
I get this open oh I need a knife uhoh

00:03:06.959 --> 00:03:16.440
trouble yep there we go I'll just use a pen cuz pens are always

00:03:13.159 --> 00:03:18.120
handy always have a pen in an office

00:03:16.440 --> 00:03:21.959
it's very difficult to go into an office and not have a pen anywhere in the

00:03:20.519 --> 00:03:25.840
office because then people couldn't write things unless they use pencils and

00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:30.959
I don't think I've used a pencil since elementary school it's been a very long

00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:32.400
time um Intel core i7 extreme Edition

00:03:30.959 --> 00:03:36.080
check marks so these are ready for the extreme Edition and if you're not buying

00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:40.599
an extreme Edition processor I don't know where you get off spending so much

00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:45.640
on your memory so that makes sense okay so here we go uh we've got Dominator

00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:51.120
GT the module itself why don't we just take this out of the

00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:53.760
box and then um so yeah unlike their

00:03:51.120 --> 00:04:00.560
normal dominators the Dominator GTs have a special edition

00:03:57.120 --> 00:04:03.280
red heat sink up on the top oh this is

00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:08.640
interesting I've never seen this before I have to admit I have no idea what this

00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:10.360
is for there's a little pin out on the

00:04:08.640 --> 00:04:15.599
memory module maybe it says something about it on the

00:04:12.200 --> 00:04:18.160
box absolutely nothing okay well here if

00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:23.000
you can leave a comment saying either if you know what this is for or if you have

00:04:20.199 --> 00:04:30.440
some idea what this is for it's actually on um it's on all three modules and um

00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:34.960
yeah I don't know what that does okay so anyway you've got your standard 240 pin

00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:40.240
DDR3 pin out along the bottom here you've got again your standard Dominator

00:04:38.080 --> 00:04:43.960
heat spreader along the side and like I mentioned before it's a special edition

00:04:42.120 --> 00:04:48.080
Red Top I believe Corsair does three colors black red and blue depending on

00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:50.680
which kit you're buying and then on the side you can see they've got a slightly

00:04:49.479 --> 00:04:55.600
different sticker from the normal Dominator one with the GT and it is red

00:04:53.000 --> 00:05:01.160
so that'll go really nicely with an EVGA classified or another uh bright red and

00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:06.520
black accented motherboard so thank you for checking out my unboxing of the

00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:09.919
Corsair Dominator GT triple Channel kit

00:05:06.520 --> 00:05:09.919
turn that around
