1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:09,200 Welcome to a ghetto unboxing. Today's unboxing is not about 2 00:00:06,560 --> 00:00:15,880 the box because you can plainly see that there's no box. This is about what's 3 00:00:11,679 --> 00:00:19,840 inside the box. This is Corsair's allnew 4 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:23,279 Dominator light bar showcase. So, inside 5 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:26,160 this anti-static bag, I have four sticks 6 00:00:23,279 --> 00:00:31,279 of what is some of the most premium memory on the freaking block. So, the 7 00:00:29,199 --> 00:00:36,320 light bar kit comes with a few different colors, but ours is going to be 8 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:39,680 showcasing the blue light bar. So, I'm going to move that so that I'm not 9 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:44,000 showing it to the wrong camera here. So, you can see that there's a the the light 10 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:48,640 inside the Dominator Platinum module is still white, but there's an actual uh 11 00:00:46,399 --> 00:00:52,800 blue window in the top of it that's going to give it some pretty sweet 12 00:00:51,039 --> 00:00:59,039 effects. So, remember guys, Dominator Platinums use a custom PCB, a custom 13 00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:04,000 heat spreader. They've got heat sink fins here on the top and then an 14 00:01:00,879 --> 00:01:06,560 aluminum uh bar that goes on the top, 15 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:08,960 both for looks and for presumably some additional cooling, although I don't 16 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:13,360 think that's going to make that much of a difference, but also just like awesome 17 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:16,640 lookingness. You've also got full compatibility with Corsair Link with the 18 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:22,159 little connector on the side of the module itself, which sort of drives home 19 00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:24,799 that custom PCB a aspect of this. Guys, 20 00:01:22,159 --> 00:01:29,840 to be clear, these are extremely expensive heat spreaders and only really 21 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:33,840 make sense for premium modules. So, we're going to go ahead and we're going 22 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:37,840 to take our existing sort of gaming memory, I guess you might call it. Take 23 00:01:35,759 --> 00:01:43,119 it out of this system and we are going to be upgrading to Corsair Dominator 24 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:46,159 Platinum. So, you can see that before I started, I touched the power supply. 25 00:01:44,799 --> 00:01:52,399 That's to ground myself. And now, I'm not going to move my feet. It's important to uh do the necessary 26 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:55,759 precautions before installing memory like this. So, this Oh, right. The spec 27 00:01:54,159 --> 00:02:00,640 on this here, Diesel, I'm going to get you to come in close again. So, these 28 00:01:57,759 --> 00:02:04,079 are 16 gig kits. So, these are 2 by8s and then I'm populating them into a quad 29 00:02:02,479 --> 00:02:09,520 channel board, which is technically not really recommended, but it should still 30 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:14,160 be fine. 2400 megahertz, so 2.4 31 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:16,720 gigahertz, 8 gig modules. 32 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:21,680 need a moment of silence to let that like sink in and then boom, head 33 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:24,480 explosion. Uh, so they're cast 10, so yeah, they're not super tight timings or 34 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:31,040 anything by any stretch of the imagination, but that is some 35 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:37,120 high-speed, high density memory going on. That means we are putting 32 gigs of 36 00:02:34,239 --> 00:02:41,120 some of the fastest RAM money can buy in this particular system here. It also 37 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:46,480 happens to be some of the sexiest RAM money can buy. So, let's go ahead and 38 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:52,160 power this bad boy up. So, I'm going to put my power cable back 39 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:54,400 in. Every so often, the uh the 40 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:58,959 motherboard will just power up if you insert a memory module. So, that's why I 41 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:01,599 unplug the power supply. Or actually, unplugging it is bad. You should leave 42 00:03:00,239 --> 00:03:06,879 it plugged in so that you can still ground off of it, but you should turn the switch so that the system won't 43 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:11,920 randomly power on. All right, so here we go. We'll do a daytime shot first. Going 44 00:03:08,959 --> 00:03:15,920 to power this up. I love it. This goes really well with the P9X79 Deluxe 45 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:20,959 motherboard that we've got in this particular rig. This is an older Corsair 46 00:03:18,239 --> 00:03:24,480 H100, not an H100i. I apologize for that, but it still looks pretty boss. 47 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:29,280 How's that? How's that look, Diesel? Should we do the night shot now? Yeah, I'm getting the I'm getting the so so 48 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:32,840 hand. So, let's do our night shot here. Ready, guys? Let's try turning the just 49 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:37,519 those off first and see how it looks. Go. How's that look? I'm getting the 50 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:41,440 thumbs up. How about in complete darkness? 51 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:46,239 How's it look now? Yeah, I'm I'm definitely getting the thumbs up over 52 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:47,519 there now. So, that is what Dominator 53 00:03:46,239 --> 00:03:53,360 light bars will look like in your system. I'm going to give you some different angles here, guys. So, you can 54 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:57,360 still see the whiteness as kind of an underglow effect, but the tops of the 55 00:03:55,599 --> 00:04:01,599 modules themselves. I'm going to lean a little bit more so you can see the very 56 00:03:58,959 --> 00:04:06,480 tops of the modules have a very unique Whoops. Oh, hold on. Let's power it back 57 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:09,680 on. I think Oh, shoot. I think I put some There we put some pressure on the 58 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:14,879 connector there. All right. So, the tops of the modules themselves have that blue 59 00:04:12,159 --> 00:04:19,519 glow going on, which looks very, very cool. So, I'm going to go ahead and go 60 00:04:16,639 --> 00:04:23,240 all the way down to this angle. So, you can see it from here. You got that, 61 00:04:20,919 --> 00:04:30,479 diesel? All right. So, there you go, guys. That is the Corsair Dominator 62 00:04:27,199 --> 00:04:33,040 Platinums with light bars. It was sort 63 00:04:30,479 --> 00:04:36,240 of an unboxing. Basically, beast memory for beast systems.
