Anonim

We had not analyzed RAM memory modules for a long time! Is it because of the high prices they had a year ago at this time? On this occasion, we were able to test the fantastic Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB for a week. They come to the market with a very dark design, with RGB lighting and top-of-the-range features.

Will it live up to our expectations? Do not miss our review! Let's start!

We appreciate Corsair's trust in the transfer of the product for its analysis:

Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB technical characteristics

Unboxing and design

Corsair has us accustomed to presentations of remarkable height and this time it was not going to be different. The Dominator Platinum RGB comes in a sturdy box dominated by the colorful RGB system of RAM memory modules. The box gives us a small spoiler that is a 32 GB kit and has support for the renewed iCUE Software.

On the back we have a brief explanation of the product and a sticker that indicates the exact model we are dealing with.

Once we open the box we find the following bundle:

  • Four Corsair Dominator RGB modules Quick Guide

The pack consists of a total of four DDR4 modules of 8GB each, which if we install it on our computer, we will have a total of 32 GB of RAM. Its serial speeds for the Intel platform is 3600 Mhz and have a guaranteed latency of CL16 (16-18-18-36) which, given its speed, are great. You can see the good work and the care he has done with the Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB.

The Dominator series is always characterized by having one of the best constructions and an imposing physical appearance. In this case, it combines both features and a high-profile design that improves cooling.

We have seen chrome models, more classic models but no Dominator model with RGB lighting. This model brings the great novelty of an RGB system with 12 fully customizable LEDs via software.

This design is highly demanded by users, since many reward that their PC have lighting synchronized with their motherboard, graphics card and peripherals. Now the Dominators are updated to improve… What don't you want RGB? You can disable it and only use it when you really need it.

The heatsink on the front and rear area is much more exquisite, as it has a black brushed aluminum structure, an anodized aluminum upper bar and a new light bar. But internally it features a 10-layer PCB and high-end memory chips, ensuring solid performance and unlimited overclocking.

As expected, it has the Intel XMP 2.0 certification that makes it 100% compatible at maximum frequencies on Intel platforms: LGA 1151 and LGA 2066. What is expected?

We leave you an image of the memories mounted on our test bench. They look spectacular. Great job for the American company.

Test bench and tests

TESTING BENCH

Intel Core i9-9900K

Power supply

Corsair RM1000X

We have used a top of the range Z390 motherboard and an i9-9900K processor that we have been using for many months in our test bench. All results have been passed with the 3600 MHz profile and the applied voltage of 1.35V in Dual Channel. Let's go see them!

ICUE software

Corsair iCUE is the software in charge of managing all the Corsair components of our system. It allows us to monitor all the components and adjust the products with support for LED lighting certified by the brand itself.

In the first tab it allows us to check what RAM we have installed and in what format. In our case it detects that we are in a Dual Channel system and we have the 4 modules mounted.

In the lighting section we can see that we can individually assign an effect or do it for everyone. There are a wide variety of options, we can choose between a large color palette and the speed of the transition.

Although the memories are CL16 it has one of the profiles that allows a small overclock to CL15. Gaining a little performance plus performance. It is appreciated because many users try to squeeze their components to the maximum, although they do not know that RAM is one of the most delicate components and that it may possibly fail to overclock.

We also have the option of monitoring temperatures. This is very useful for us to create a profile and always have all our components at cool or optimal temperatures.

Finally, it allows us to create warnings for high temperatures. Corsair has certainly done very well in developing its application. We've seen a huge improvement from the first release of CUE to iCUE. Chapó!

Final words and conclusion about Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB

Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB can be defined as quality, design and great performance for high-end equipment. This model offers 3600 MHz, excellent latency (even with an overclocking profile), excellent cooling and very good compatibility with any platform.

In our performance tests we have seen that it offers the best that Dual Channel gives in DDR4. Very good read, write and latency rates. At the benchmark level , with cinebench we have scratched some extra point regarding the stock speed.

We recommend reading the best RAM memory on the market

We have been saying for a long time, if you have to mount or update your equipment, choose 3200 MHz memories forward. Since we will gain a few more FPS while we play and this is a very important fact to keep in mind?

This kit costs 569.99 euros, we know it is a high price but if you are looking for the best of the best, it is worth every euro you invest in it. If you are not interested in RGB lights, the normal version is still sold and it comes out a little cheaper. What do you think of the Dominator Platinum RGB ? We want to know your opinion!
