In the past,
ClubOC has reviewed some mighty fast memory, but none has ever come
across our lab rated at such a high speed. Like most of you, in
order for us to achieve speeds like these, we've had to do some pretty
impressive overclocking. Likewise, we have fried our share of
hardware trying to achieve the ultimate overclock. It's the risk
we take when we overclock. In this case, Corsair has decided to
take the risk for us, and overclock their memory plus give us a lifetime
warranty. Don't worry, we're not letting them take all of the fun.
We are still going to overclock. With the memory factory
overclocked to the brink of destruction, I just don't know how much
headroom this memory is going to have. I can't wait to find out
though.

DHX
Technology
Corsair’s new DOMINATOR line of memory modules features innovative
quad-layer heat sink design and Corsair’s patent-pending Dual-path Heat
Xchange (DHX™) technology. DHX technology is the world’s most advanced
memory module thermal dissipation technology where heat is dissipated
through two paths - the leads of the BGA chips into the printed circuit
board (PCB) and the back of the BGA packages into the high-performance
extruded aluminum heat sinks. Thanks to the advanced thermal
design of the DOMINATOR, memory modules rated at scorching-fast 1142MHz
operate with rock solid stability without the need of elevated voltage.
The result of the combination of DHX technology and the high rated speed
means PC enthusiasts can enjoy added performance edge at both stock
speed and when overclocked. The illustration below shows a cut
apart view of the memory module.
Here's a ClubOC view of the
Dual-path Heat Xchange.
