Corsair Launches Dominator Platinum Special Edition Torque DDR4 Memory
CORSAIR, a world leader in enthusiast memory, high-performance gaming hardware and PC components today announced the immediate availability of its new DOMINATOR PLATINUM Special Edition Torque DDR4 memory. Inspired by those for whom speed is an obsession, each module features a uniquely heat-treated effect top bar, combining the iconic DOMINATOR PLATINUM design with the aesthetic of high-performance engines.
Completed by a brushed black aluminum heatsink, stunning built-in lighting and orange accents, each kit is individually numbered using high precision laser engraving, guaranteeing exclusivity. Available in limited quantities, DOMINATOR PLATINUM Special Edition Torque DDR4 memory is built for speed - inside and out.Fully compatible with the latest Intel X99 and 200-series motherboards, each module is individually hand screened for added quality assurance and overclocking headroom. For the speed-obsessed looking to push their system to the limit and reach peak performance, DOMINATOR PLATINUM Special Edition's custom 10-layer PCB provides superior signalling for greater overclocking potential, allowing every DOMINATOR PLATINUM Special Edition Torque module to be safely overclocked to at least 3,600MHz. What's more, with CORSAIR's patented DHX cooling technology, the aluminum heat-spreader is built right into the PCB, ensuring rapid heat dissipation and lower temperatures.
To celebrate the launch of DOMINATOR PLATINUM Special Edition Torque, CORSAIR commissioned renowned case modder Lee Harrington to create a chassis worthy of housing these limited edition DDR4 modules. Starting with a CORSAIR BULLDOG SFF kit, Lee created a stunning homage to 60's hot-rods, complete with flaming paint job, pneumatic hood struts and working headlights

That is Cl 14 at 3200 Hz is good. RAM does not warmed so strongly in the operation. Almost does not require cooling elements. Price is as hot as illustrated by the RAM. That for this money I would have expected 4200hz default out of the box .
I actually think this kit looks really good, but I won't give up my Gskill Trident Z 3200/14 32GB kit which at time of purchase was only $254.99.
Corsair losing market share in memory heavily to Gskill AND Power Supplies, where is the new Titanium Efficiency line of PSUs Corsair??? 650watt? 750watt? 850watt? 1000watt?
They are still selling the Platinum line AX860i from November 2012 for $229, I bought one back then and returned it so noisy for an AX860 (Seasonic OEM).
I can understand why the head of Corsair Power Supply Production is so touchy, when anyone mentions a competing brand. I'm sorry man, I'm only a consumer. I buy the most efficient parts at the best prices like anyone else.
And right now Seasonic offers much better PSUs Titanium Grade $199 for the 850watt Prime at better prices than Corsair.
Not sure why Corsair and Seasonic are no longer working together, I have no idea.
Just like the head of Corsair Power Supplies called me a "Seasonic Shill" for stating the obvious and the factual.
I should report him and get his ass fired. :mad:
when they were seasonic built:pimp:
I do like the look of this ram personally, but dominators are usually too much more than vengeances, let alone special edition ones, the rog ones were way too much
Anyway, needs reviewing!
all i see on Corsairs website is:-
REDLINE PERFORMANCE
Hand screened ICs ensure superior performance and reliability
and this
WHITE KNUCKLE ENGINEERING
PRECISION TUNED TO PERFORM
The ICs of each DOMINATOR PLATINUM Special Edition Torque kit are hand screened and rigorously tested by CORSAIR’s memory engineers to ensure maximum overclocking performance and reliability.
32GB (2X16GB)
32GB (4X8GB)
3200 MHz
14-16-16-36
- VOLTAGE:
- FORMAT:
do you have photos of said ICs?1.35V
DDR4
Unbuffered DIMM
most vendors screen there ICs and say similar things about every module, its called marketing bullshit :)
NDAs will be signed by anyone who has access to or knowledge (legitimate, as in they're meant to know about it - not someone getting "free" info from someone else) of the product. This means that, as an example, there would have been an NDA signed by motherboard vendors for Ryzen during the course of last year. They would need extensive knowledge of the workings of the CPU as well as samples of the CPU in order to design motherboards - they're not reviewers, but all staff working on AM4 motherboards would have been under NDA.
Staff at AMD working on Ryzen would also have been under NDA, etc. It's certainly not exclusive to reviewers.
Secondly, I didn't say I HAVE the sticks, I said I've had knowledge of them. In theory I could have had second hand access to them, but I never had them in my hands personally :(
Lastly, knowing about upcoming products is a part of what puts food on my table - let's leave it at that :)
