WEBVTT 00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:09.200 Welcome to a ghetto unboxing. Today's unboxing is not about 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 00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:19.840 inside the box. This is Corsair's allnew 00:00:15.880 --> 00:00:23.279 Dominator light bar showcase. So, inside 00:00:19.840 --> 00:00:26.160 this anti-static bag, I have four sticks 00:00:23.279 --> 00:00:31.279 of what is some of the most premium memory on the freaking block. So, the 00:00:29.199 --> 00:00:36.320 light bar kit comes with a few different colors, but ours is going to be 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 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 00:00:41.680 --> 00:00:48.640 inside the Dominator Platinum module is still white, but there's an actual uh 00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:52.800 blue window in the top of it that's going to give it some pretty sweet 00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:59.039 effects. So, remember guys, Dominator Platinums use a custom PCB, a custom 00:00:56.640 --> 00:01:04.000 heat spreader. They've got heat sink fins here on the top and then an 00:01:00.879 --> 00:01:06.560 aluminum uh bar that goes on the top, 00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:08.960 both for looks and for presumably some additional cooling, although I don't 00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:13.360 think that's going to make that much of a difference, but also just like awesome 00:01:11.600 --> 00:01:16.640 lookingness. You've also got full compatibility with Corsair Link with the 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:22.159 little connector on the side of the module itself, which sort of drives home 00:01:18.320 --> 00:01:24.799 that custom PCB a aspect of this. Guys, 00:01:22.159 --> 00:01:29.840 to be clear, these are extremely expensive heat spreaders and only really 00:01:27.360 --> 00:01:33.840 make sense for premium modules. So, we're going to go ahead and we're going 00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:37.840 to take our existing sort of gaming memory, I guess you might call it. Take 00:01:35.759 --> 00:01:43.119 it out of this system and we are going to be upgrading to Corsair Dominator 00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:46.159 Platinum. So, you can see that before I started, I touched the power supply. 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 00:01:50.320 --> 00:01:55.759 precautions before installing memory like this. So, this Oh, right. The spec 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 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 00:02:02.479 --> 00:02:09.520 channel board, which is technically not really recommended, but it should still 00:02:05.520 --> 00:02:14.160 be fine. 2400 megahertz, so 2.4 00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:16.720 gigahertz, 8 gig modules. 00:02:14.160 --> 00:02:21.680 need a moment of silence to let that like sink in and then boom, head 00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:24.480 explosion. Uh, so they're cast 10, so yeah, they're not super tight timings or 00:02:23.440 --> 00:02:31.040 anything by any stretch of the imagination, but that is some 00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:37.120 high-speed, high density memory going on. That means we are putting 32 gigs of 00:02:34.239 --> 00:02:41.120 some of the fastest RAM money can buy in this particular system here. It also 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 00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:52.160 power this bad boy up. So, I'm going to put my power cable back 00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:54.400 in. Every so often, the uh the 00:02:52.160 --> 00:02:58.959 motherboard will just power up if you insert a memory module. So, that's why I 00:02:56.720 --> 00:03:01.599 unplug the power supply. Or actually, unplugging it is bad. You should leave 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 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 00:03:08.959 --> 00:03:15.920 to power this up. I love it. This goes really well with the P9X79 Deluxe 00:03:14.480 --> 00:03:20.959 motherboard that we've got in this particular rig. This is an older Corsair 00:03:18.239 --> 00:03:24.480 H100, not an H100i. I apologize for that, but it still looks pretty boss. 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 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 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 00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:41.440 thumbs up. How about in complete darkness? 00:03:39.920 --> 00:03:46.239 How's it look now? Yeah, I'm I'm definitely getting the thumbs up over 00:03:43.040 --> 00:03:47.519 there now. So, that is what Dominator 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 00:03:50.640 --> 00:03:57.360 still see the whiteness as kind of an underglow effect, but the tops of the 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 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 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 00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:14.879 connector there. All right. So, the tops of the modules themselves have that blue 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 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, 00:04:20.919 --> 00:04:30.479 diesel? All right. So, there you go, guys. That is the Corsair Dominator 00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:33.040 Platinums with light bars. It was sort 00:04:30.479 --> 00:04:36.240 of an unboxing. Basically, beast memory for beast systems.
