Corsair makes overclocking easy. Its Dominator series Triple Channel kits set the standard for enthusiast-oriented memory modules developed for the up-to-the-minute Intel Core i7 processor / Intel X58 Express Chipset. This triple channel 6GB kit is rated to run at 1600MHz and has CL 8-8-8-24 timings for speedy performance. Each kit is 100% hand tested for performance and compatibility.
To keep everything running cool, these modules use DHX (Dual-path Heat eXchange) technology. The patented heat-removing PCB is surrounded by Corsair's signature heat sink with fins and ribs for cool running memory even under the hottest action. So game hard, game long, your memory can handle it!
This new 6GB kit ensures optimal performance via an ideal combination of low voltage requirements, speed, and latency, so it's a perfect match for the Nehalem platform to unleash performance you could only dream of before.

Holey [removed]
- Pros: Too many to list. Fast, reliable, and is it not overclockable? Reliable as ever; never had a problem with Corsair memory.
The cooling fins look incredible - just had to throw that in there.
DDR3 can do magic. Go to Nvidia Forums, look for CUDA Programming and Development, and look for a thread titled "x58 Chipset PCIE Bandwidth." There you will find an interesting discussion (and real performance data) of how fast DDR3 triple channel with Core i7 really is.
- Cons: If you find any cons, contact me...
- Other Thoughts: Ok, I want to correct some misconceptions about these modules. They are not DDR3 1066 MHz stock. The only reason hey run at 1066 is because the Core i7's memory controller is rated at 1066 MHz; anything above that overclocks the CPU's memory controller. These are actually DDR3 1333 sticks with huge overclocking potential. They have SPD settings for 1333MHz @ 9-10-10-25 and 1.5V (standard for DDR3). There's also an XMP Profile set for 1600 @ 8-8-8-24 and 1.65V; here's where the overclocking is, but they're guaranteed to work at these settings.
So if you want to operate these anywhere above Intel's slow 1066MHz, you will have to dig through the BIOS and increase speed yourself. THAT IS DUE TO THE CPU, NOT THE STICKS!!! Luckily, all you have to do is select XMP Profile 1 and it will run at its true potential.
Great product
- Pros: No problems at all installing and running first try. Looks great and has the performance to match.
- Cons: Not a con for the memory but something to keep in mind. Make sure you check your bios timings. My asus had the memory running at 9-9-9-24 so change that, also change the speed to 1600mhz.
- Other Thoughts: Core I7 965EE, Asus P6T Deluxe, CM HAF case, 6gb Dominators, ToughPower 1200, 4870X2 gpu, 2 x VRaptor Raid 0, 1 x WD640, Vista 64bit.

Overkill
- Pros: This is probably more than I needed for the system I'm building (i7 920), but I hate to scrimp on a component that is this important. It gives me plenty of room if I decide to overclock in the future.
- Cons: Pricey, but you get what you pay for.
Excellent
- Pros: Very Cool Design. Fast No problems with it at all.
- Cons: They are a little tall. My CPU heatsink blocks one port but I can still hook in these sticks into the 3 other slots.
Solid and Forgiving
- Pros: Solid and forgiving... I am OC'ing an i7-920 to 3.8GHz on air and as I played around with the memory I may have made, um, a few, um, adjustments that were less than ideal. No worries, the RAM was forgiving and I'm good to go. I only wish I paid the extra $10 to get the 1866 sticks since I have to run these at 1500MHz due to clock ratios. (BCLK at 183 x 20: RAM 2:8 is ok, 2:10 puts me over - you know what I mean).
Note to EVGA x58 board owners - if you haven't already read - and if you're not OCing - set the Memory to XMP profile to see these reach their 1600MHz 8-8-8-24 rating. It's not obvious in the BIOS and the EVGA forums are a bit screwey at the moment.
- Cons: None at all.
