When these sticks arrived on my desk today I could not resist having a play as it may be a part I end up using in one of my 8 pack designed systems. I am always mindful of efficientcy and I like my systems to outperform others even if they have exactly the same clock speeds. Which they wont be as mine will be higher clocks too!!!

The Dominator Plats look fabulous with the black and silver heat spreaders.The XMP on these is 12-14-14-36 2T. I thought maybe I can do better than that ;) lets see how I faired.

The CPU is not a binned one just a retail one pulled from the warehouse on Friday. Its memory controller is strong though as it handled 2800 fairly well.

I did mem test first and then further stability checks. This is where they tuned down to.



Giving very impressive Maxmem scores for bandwidth in Read, Write and Copy. Remember CPU for this one is at stock.

A good result I think 11-13-12-25 1T with tight subs for the frequency being attained.

This is a product I look forward to benching with and building with in the very near future.
 
For my systems Performance will be the main focus along with amazing aesthetics, support and warranty. They will be the best in terms of efficiency too. We will be giving good value in this I can assure you as pricing will be competative for what are an exclusive line in systems.

If they are 1.35v I am guessing those Corsairs are Samsung IC. I have not tested them but if hey are Samsung I would not be surprised if they clock well.
 
CFR is the best hynix die at around 2800. Usually rated C11 and works well.

At 2600 Teamgroup are hard to beat currently. Corsair 2666 C10 where top dog but are EOL now. Both are Samsung IC.

I still have my old BFR by GSKILL that can do like C9 3100 on LN2 amazing kit.
