Corsair CMD8GX3M2A1600C8 Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR3 8GB 2 x 4GB DIMM 240-pin 1600 MHz / PC3-12800 CL8 1.5V non-ECC (CMD8GX3M2A1600C8)

The latest generation of the performance legend.

Corsair Dominator® Platinum builds on the legacy of the world’s most awarded high-performance memory, adding a striking new industrial design and LED lighting effects. Like all Dominator memory modules, they are built using only select memory ICs, highly-screened for performance and stability, and feature our patented DHX Dual-path Heat eXchange cooling technology, so you can push them to the limit.

Fanatical screening for phenomenal performance.

Dominator Platinum memory modules are assembled using a “best of the best” IC screening process. Individual ICs are hand-screened to our highest performance threshold, and then the assembled modules undergo more rounds of rigorous screening and stability testing. The result is reliable performance under extreme pressure.

Cooler temperatures for better overclocking headroom.

Excess heat limits overclocking potential, reduces performance, and can even lead to shorter component life. Our patented dual-channel DHX cooling system pulls heat away from the modules and allows Dominator Platinum to run at cooler temperatures than lesser memory kits.

This advanced cooling technology, combined with our relentless screening, delivers phenomenal overclocking potential.

Customize your look.

The integrated light bar provides a subtle downwash lighting effect that gives your system an impressive look but subtle look. Additional light bars available separately, beginning September 2012 allow you to match your system’s color scheme.

Corsair Link compatible.

Add an Airflow Pro available separately, and connect with Corsair Link system monitoring and control solutions for real-time activity and temperature monitoring.
