Corsair Dominator Platinum CL10 2666 MHz Review + BenchMarks




Corsair has made very best memories and it is the no. 1 brand in memory manufacturer and if you ever use a corsair memory, you can understand, why they are no. 1 in memory manufacturer list.Today we take a look at Corsair Dominator Platinum CL10 2666 MHz 4x 4GB DDR3 RAM.The Dominator Platinum series is Corsair's new ultra-high-performance DDR3 memory.When it comes to memory, you've got many options, from cheap green sticks to high-end, ultra-overclocking modules including lights and other features. Corsair has long been a supplier of those high-end modules, complete with LED text displays, and EQ-like parametric displays that show different functional readings at the same time. Not to be outdone by others that have released new modules, Corsair has their own new high-end modules, and this time it's not just some Dominator GT module, but a whole new product called Dominator Platinum. They feature a new heatsink design, LED lighting with special effects as well as cherry-picked ICs. The one we are reviewing today is the second fastest of the line clocked at DDR3-2666 MHz and Corsair does this at CL10 timings. Spoiler: They can easily do DDR3-2800 MHz CL10.
