Cons:A bit expensive?
Pros:Come with a memory fan cooler Comment:
I have no problem yet with this mem kit. Use it with a DFI Lanparty DK P35 and a Q9450. I score a bit over P10000 with 3dmark. The fan are not really noisy but im able to ear them. But im water cooled so there is not to much sound coming from my case. But i add a fan controler and now i can't ear them. |

Corsair XMS2 Dominator TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF 4GB 2X2GB PC2-8500 DDR2-1066 CL5-5-5-15 240PIN Memory Kit
Cons:None, after four weeks of use.
Pros:Heatspreader design is excellentGood after sales support from CorsairOptional fan cools the DIMMs if space allowsRuns at rated speed, at 2.1V Comment:
I am one of the many individuals who had to purchase new ram after Crucial Ballistix chips seemed to fail again and again.I choose this memory and so far, so good!The memory registers immediately with my motherboard (ASUS P5K-E) and it read the SPD immediately. Manually setting it to the recommended timings was easy, and it operated at those timings at 2.1V without any issues.This memory is slightly overclockable, as I am running them at DDR2-1100 without the need for additional voltage.The included fan might be a gimmick to some people, but I had sufficient room in my case to mount them over the DIMM slots. It provides ample cooling to the memory keeping them stable if you are overclocking.Highly recommended and very happy that they actually work unlike the current batch of Crucial Ballistix. |

Cons:fan wekness
Pros:The fan is cool but the RAM is so tall that I didn't end up using it because it would block airflow through my case. Comment:
Good deals to be had for the 4GB kit and cheap it has easily performed for me at the rated speeds. I've never had problems with Corsair and this is no exception. The fan is cool but the RAM is so tall that I didn't end up using it because it would block airflow through my case. I also wish you could rotate the fan angle but it's fixed paralell to the motherboard so I can't make it blow towards the back of the case where I would like. |

Cons:Fan doesn`t look strongly attached to the memory.
Pros:Cheap for 1066 Mhz Comment:
Great package at a very good price. I would not say that the way the fan (3 fans actually) is attached to the memory is very solid and if you are in a situation where your workstation has to suffer lots of vibration (rarely the case anyways) it could come off. |

Cons:- None
Pros:- Stylish- Affordable - Fan included Comment:
I have always like Corsair ram. That's why I decided to go with the Dominator modules. This set is well equiped with a cooler to make OC'ing a breeze. The fans are pretty quiet and do their job keep the ram nice and chilled. The ram itself is very high performance and is recommended for people who plan to overclock. It also looks very stylish inside your case. |

Pros:Quality/Price Comment:
This is great memory. Runs perfect on my P5Q-E. I haven't installed the fan kit that came with it. I was a bit concerned about fan noise, my case already contains 4 fans. I dont need any more cooling anyway with my Antec 900 (which is surprisingly silent)Great buy for that price! |

Comment:
I bought this ram last week, and it just arrived yesterday. So far so good, this product is everything that it is described as. Pros: Great ram, and even comes with a free ram fan ( a $20 Value) Cons: THe price dropped the day after I purchased it, and my package was open when it arrived. My ram was in the bottom of the box and the ram cooling fan brackets were also in the bottom of the box. I have orderd alot of stuff from tiger direct for personal use and my company use, and this is the first time that I have seen poor packaging like this. |

Comment:
I bought this ram two days ago to go in my EVGA 750i FTW SLI board. This ram is rock solid and super fast. I have it oced to 1200mhz @ 2.2v very stable this is some of the best performing ram ive ever owned the latencies are what they say they are although on my board i had to change them to 5-5-5-15 at first this ram showed up as 800mhz @1.9v with 5-5-5-18 easy fix though. Strongly recommend this ram to anyone |

Cons:zippo
Pros:Fantastic value, amazing speed, very stable Comment:
Whats can I say..I have 4 gigs running at the same overclock as my 2 gig set.I run these at 1066,plus all the extra boosts..pushing it beyond that. I have this coupled with my Asus Crosshair and the AMD 6400+ BE.The Corsair Dominator RAM is simply the best out there and the value now is truly phenomenal for Corsair!!!Just a few years ago , the mere mention of Corsair, was yeah..I wish..now DDR2 prices are so good..its no longer a wish..its possible.If you want your computer to flash into each menu instantly, want a certain "zip" to your PC..this RAM is a "must have".The cooling fan is an added bonus, keeps things really cool.The EPP settings work perfectly..my timings on 4 Gigs are 5,3,3,5..... any other RAM that would simply be impossible..not with Corsair. |

I got these to go in a dfi ut p35 t2r mobo. Booted up without a hitch. I'm actually running them underclocked a bit at 525mhz but I was able to hit 560mhz at 2.1v. Pretty nice looking set of ram but you cant see them in your case with the fan overtop. Overall nice kit. |

Pros:Cool and Fast Comment:
These installed easily in an ASUS Maximus Formula mobo. The 3 small fans that came with this kit keep the modules cool - the fans are quiet. I haven't overclocked the memory yet but out-of-the-box they seem to be very quick. |

Cons:(-)Rubicon-Well, there are none...Unless you want to pay 1000 dollars for top of the line DDR3 RAM, which isn't worth it!
Pros:(+)Rubics Cube-1066 capable-Kit comes with a sweet fan assembly, mounts on RAM clips-2x2GB. You can drop in 4 gigs and have room for another 4-Nice large heatsinks Comment:
These two 240 PIN modules come with a nice fan with it that you can attach to the RAM clips. Having 2GB per stick is great because you can have up to 8GB of RAM on most motherboards, as long as you have a 64 bit OS that will recognize that much. This is on sale right now and I would definitely recommend picking this up. |

Pros:Funs fast, saves you 2 slots for additional memory latter on. Comment:
I can't use the add on memory heatsink attachments from my m3a32 mobo and the memory fan this kit comes with but that's okay. These guys run cool and can bet set to different timings. 4-4-4-13-16 1.8V 5-5-5-18-23 1.8V and 5-5-5-15-22 2T 2.1V where the last one is the default setting. |

Cons:- EPP doesn't work with TWIN2X2048-8500C5D
Pros:- four GB in two memory sticks- good overclocking Comment:
The memory works without any problems. It overclocks better than my TWIN2X2048-8500C5D. One downside is that the EPP doesn't work with TWIN2X2048-8500C5D. With four GB in two sticks, I can use the full eight GB of memory my motherboard supports in the future. |

Pros:only 2 sticks = 4 gbCompatibilitySpeed Comment:
These sticks booted up no problem in my maximus formula. I went in to bios and sett speed and voltage and had no problems. I can't use the airflow fan as it is blocked by my ac7 hsf.I havent o/c yet but I know how far I could go on my firestix so I'll post back later with those results.PS. I'm running an e6850 |

Using these on my Asus Rampage formula and they just rip. Very good when overclocking and Look great. Heatspreaders do their job well. Overall this is one of the best 4gb kits available. ...Awesome! |

Pros:Worked right out of the box. Comment:
Using it on an Asus P5E and it picked it up straight away. Working with XP Pro 32-bit, so I naturally can't use all the ram, but it's better to have it on two sticks rather than 4 and preserve ram slots for future 64-bit OS upgrades. |

Cons:Would've liked to see an 8 Gig package deal
Pros:Good deal for 4 gig of RAM Comment:
Fast shipping & good deal for this RAM. The added fans is a real plus & Will be ordering more RAM for my new comp. in the near future.Packaging was good also, bubble bags improved chances of the product survival.bal |
I bought these for my new build and I am pretty happy so far. I like the fact that they are rated up to 2.1v so that allows me the opportunity to bump up the voltage without worrying about voiding any warranty I may need.The fan that this set comes with is a cool feature but I didn't use is as it blocks my heat sink fan a little. Plus I didn't see any problems with the memory that indicates I need extra cooling, but it is nice to have the option.
