so today we've got a kit of Corsair's Dominator GT memory and I think it
0:04
includes a fan but I'm actually not 100% sure so let's get to unboxing this this
0:09
is a 4 gig kit and it's I5 ready so that
0:13
means that Corsair has optimized it for operation with the I5 and the LGA 1156
0:18
i7 so here we go here's the uh the Dominator GT airflow fan but let's have
0:23
a look at the modules first so like all Dominator GT modules you can see that
0:29
we've got got a black heat spreader with
0:32
a red top piece on top so it looks very
0:35
very sharp once it's installed in your system so again the black white and red
0:39
theme on the back it's a very very Canadian actually of all things and then
0:45
the other one is again of course identical so let's have a look at the
0:48
included fan this is the dhx plus airflow GT so get this baby open so this
0:54
Clips to the sides of your of your dim slots and then it installs right over
0:59
top of your memory like that it's got a little sleeved three pin connector there
1:03
you can see these are two 60 mm fans and
1:06
apparently they're a lot quieter than the old actually well they are a lot
1:10
quieter than the older style round fans that spun quite fast and were actually
1:15
quite loud they were only 40 mm so here's your mounting hardware so you got
1:19
a four screws which you use to mount
1:23
these right about here so there you go
1:27
you just screw them in from the top and then the clips are on the side those
1:30
mount on to the clips for retaining the memory modules on your motherboard and
1:34
there you have it you've installed the Dominator GT airflow fan anyway thank
1:38
