00:00:07.439 --> 00:00:15.440
welcome to my unboxing of the RAM that I would choose but it would be for the

00:00:11.639 --> 00:00:17.600
shallowest possible reasons so the thing

00:00:15.440 --> 00:00:22.279
about Corsair products is they're kind of like okay well here's our here's our

00:00:19.880 --> 00:00:26.920
product and then here's our extremely premium product

00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:31.759
and pretty much no matter what you buy you know you're getting Corsair quality

00:00:29.279 --> 00:00:35.600
so you know you could potentially buy like you know a Vengeance kit and you're

00:00:34.160 --> 00:00:40.440
still getting Corsair quality you're still getting a lifetime warranty so you

00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:45.399
got that going for you so for me what it comes down to with their performance

00:00:42.039 --> 00:00:49.879
stuff is it's all about sex

00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:52.359
appeal Dominator platinums are so sexy

00:00:49.879 --> 00:00:58.440
this is like the heaviest RAM I've encountered in a very long time and it

00:00:55.199 --> 00:00:59.719
is also just it looks so good so here

00:00:58.440 --> 00:01:05.159
hold on don't look at it yet don't look at it okay okay iconic heat spreader

00:01:02.760 --> 00:01:09.920
design with customizable light bar upgrade kits available at Corsair.com

00:01:06.720 --> 00:01:11.799
okay cool stuff so you can actually make

00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:15.479
it so it like matches and integrates in your system even better okay supports

00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:19.560
Corsair Link Technology which means you can monitor your memory performance and

00:01:17.080 --> 00:01:23.799
that's cool too dual path dhx cooling technology for optimize heat dissipation

00:01:21.280 --> 00:01:29.720
this we've had for a long time since the uh dominators and their uh their other

00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:32.079
dhx models as well so now let's get into

00:01:29.720 --> 00:01:37.600
the memory itself so this particular kit there's nothing that special about the

00:01:33.960 --> 00:01:41.640
spec this is an 1866 kit it's uh 2x 8

00:01:37.600 --> 00:01:44.799
gig it's cl9 1.5 volts so yeah it's a

00:01:41.640 --> 00:01:46.840
good memory kit but it's not like you

00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:52.680
know they're they're crazy Dominator Platinum kit that was clocked at what

00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:53.520
what was it 2.8 GHz or something stupid

00:01:52.680 --> 00:02:00.520
like that you know I'm going to go look it up SEC yeah 3 GHz so this is not that

00:01:56.759 --> 00:02:03.680
kit this is just sort of your your

00:02:00.520 --> 00:02:07.240
mainstream SL performan see like still a

00:02:03.680 --> 00:02:08.200
very good skew memory but like look oh

00:02:07.240 --> 00:02:11.879
look at it when you put it in a motherboard though

00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:19.280
okay so you get like your Republic of Gamers board from ASUS and you got like

00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:22.519
that Dominator thing going on on the top so the customizable light bar is the one

00:02:21.160 --> 00:02:27.720
that if you guys know anything about me you know I love case lighting and uh all

00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:32.440
you have to do to change out the light bar so you can actually see these ones

00:02:29.480 --> 00:02:37.080
are white so they have like a um a frosted strip so that it dissipates the

00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:42.920
light in a pretty pretty cool way you've also got heat sinks for heat dissipation

00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:44.640
this can be removed using uh using a is

00:02:42.920 --> 00:02:48.959
that Torx or Allen key looks like an allen key so uh so no difficulty there

00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:52.599
there's your Corsair link so they're using a custom PCB this is a very

00:02:50.959 --> 00:02:57.440
customized memory module you can actually see the traces have been used

00:02:55.319 --> 00:03:02.560
and what that means is not that Corsair shipped me a used kit but that Cor a

00:03:00.640 --> 00:03:07.200
actually you know still believes in testing their memory which is a very

00:03:04.480 --> 00:03:11.920
nice and reassuring thing to see because you know in this industry that's always

00:03:09.519 --> 00:03:18.040
cost down cost down you still want to know that there's premium products out

00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:20.599
there that look so

00:03:18.040 --> 00:03:24.680
good I'm sure Slick's camera angles are almost as good as mine you know we have

00:03:21.920 --> 00:03:30.360
to power these on we have to see the lights so we're in the dark ready to

00:03:27.720 --> 00:03:32.760
power the oh so

00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:39.480
sexy okay I'll take it I'm taking the

00:03:36.959 --> 00:03:45.439
camera from slick he sucks at it anyway so that's what they look like when

00:03:41.200 --> 00:03:47.799
they're powered on in the dark so

00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:52.840
Beast love it you even get like an like an underglow effect around the uh the

00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:56.159
memory slots and all that as well so you check that

00:03:54.079 --> 00:03:58.480
out anyway thank you for checking out this unboxing and don't forget to
