welcome to my unboxing of the RAM that I would choose but it would be for the
shallowest possible reasons so the thing
about Corsair products is they're kind of like okay well here's our here's our
product and then here's our extremely premium product
and pretty much no matter what you buy you know you're getting Corsair quality
so you know you could potentially buy like you know a Vengeance kit and you're
still getting Corsair quality you're still getting a lifetime warranty so you
got that going for you so for me what it comes down to with their performance
stuff is it's all about sex
appeal Dominator platinums are so sexy
this is like the heaviest RAM I've encountered in a very long time and it
is also just it looks so good so here
hold on don't look at it yet don't look at it okay okay iconic heat spreader
design with customizable light bar upgrade kits available at Corsair.com
okay cool stuff so you can actually make
it so it like matches and integrates in your system even better okay supports
Corsair Link Technology which means you can monitor your memory performance and
that's cool too dual path dhx cooling technology for optimize heat dissipation
this we've had for a long time since the uh dominators and their uh their other
dhx models as well so now let's get into
the memory itself so this particular kit there's nothing that special about the
spec this is an 1866 kit it's uh 2x 8
gig it's cl9 1.5 volts so yeah it's a
good memory kit but it's not like you
know they're they're crazy Dominator Platinum kit that was clocked at what
what was it 2.8 GHz or something stupid
like that you know I'm going to go look it up SEC yeah 3 GHz so this is not that
kit this is just sort of your your
mainstream SL performan see like still a
very good skew memory but like look oh
look at it when you put it in a motherboard though
okay so you get like your Republic of Gamers board from ASUS and you got like
that Dominator thing going on on the top so the customizable light bar is the one
that if you guys know anything about me you know I love case lighting and uh all
you have to do to change out the light bar so you can actually see these ones
are white so they have like a um a frosted strip so that it dissipates the
light in a pretty pretty cool way you've also got heat sinks for heat dissipation
this can be removed using uh using a is
that Torx or Allen key looks like an allen key so uh so no difficulty there
there's your Corsair link so they're using a custom PCB this is a very
customized memory module you can actually see the traces have been used
and what that means is not that Corsair shipped me a used kit but that Cor a
actually you know still believes in testing their memory which is a very
nice and reassuring thing to see because you know in this industry that's always
cost down cost down you still want to know that there's premium products out
there that look so
good I'm sure Slick's camera angles are almost as good as mine you know we have
to power these on we have to see the lights so we're in the dark ready to
power the oh so
sexy okay I'll take it I'm taking the
camera from slick he sucks at it anyway so that's what they look like when
they're powered on in the dark so
Beast love it you even get like an like an underglow effect around the uh the
memory slots and all that as well so you check that
out anyway thank you for checking out this unboxing and don't forget to
