Dominator® GT with DHX Pro Connector — 1.5V 16GB Dual/Quad Channel DDR3 Memory Kit (CMT16GX3M4X2133C9)

Extreme Performance for Extreme Systems

Removable heatsinks allow you to change colors or add the optional extended cooling fins.

Designed for the best of the best

The average PC doesn't need Dominator GT memory. Neither do most above-average PCs, for that matter. But if you're assembling a dream system with the best components available — a truly amazing enthusiast-grade system for doing truly amazing things — Dominator GT is the right choice.

Extensive performance modeling, screening, and testing

The manufacturing process starts with DRAM chips that are tightly screened against outrageous targets for speed and latency. The assembled memory modules are then screened again and undergo testing to ensure that they'll provide stability you can count on. You'll get great specs out of the box, with generous headroom for overclocking.

XMP Memory Profile for simple, safe overclocking

Dominator GT memory supports the Intel XMP (Extreme Memory Profile) standard, and each module is individually factory-programmed with an XMP profile indicating supported timing, frequency and voltages. Just enable XMP on your compatible motherboard and you'll automatically get optimized memory overclocking without having to deal with multiple BIOS settings. Of course, if you're an experienced overclocker, or an aspiring one, you can adjust the settings to push for even higher performance.

Patented DHX+ technology with removable heatsinks

State-of-the-art cooling is essential for high-performance memory. Our DHX+ technology uses specially designed heatsinks and a custom-designed PCB that cools the front and rear of the DRAM chips as well as the printed circuit board itself.

A modular heatsink design gives you the flexibility to change the color for a custom look, or to swap them out for the optional extended cooling fins.

Dominator GT DDR3 memory is available in dual channel, triple channel and quad channel kits.

Designed for Enthusiasts. Backed by Corsair.

Vengeance Extreme 3000MHz setup and overclocking results

By Jake Crimmins, on April 17th, 2013

Building the modules

Building the world's fastest production memory is no easy feat, you need the right combination of hardware and memory ICs. To build just one Vengeance Extreme DRAM module requires screening through over 1000 memory ICs. Check out the video below for more info on how the modules are made.

Intel Ivy Bridge and Corsair Memory Compatibility

By Mike Clements, on April 24th, 2012

The newly announced 3rd Generation Intel® Core™ processor family is their next generation of 64-bit, multi-core processors built on 22-nanometer process technology. Ivy Bridge is the successors to the Sandy Bridge processor family, and should become available to purchase at retail on April 29, 2012. The new Ivy Bridge processor offerings are the Intel Core i7-3770K, Intel Core i7-3770, Intel Core i7-3770S, Intel Core i7-3770T, Intel Core i5- 3570K, Intel Core i5-3550, Intel Core i5-3550S, Intel Core i5-3570T, Intel Core i5-3450, and Intel Core i5-3450S Processors.

Corsair Meets Intel's Ivy Bridge and Panther Point

By Mike Clements, on April 23rd, 2012

Intel always manages to assign some interesting code names to their chipsets and to their processors. For example, their two latest enthusiast product announcements are code named Panther Point (chipset) and Ivy Bridge (CPU). Although our corresponding secretive code names aren't secret, it's always great fun to use some Vengeance® memory to learn about the new products and of course see how they perform and overclock!

Setting up your GPU for Liquid Nitrogen Overclocking

By Jake Crimmins, on April 2nd, 2012

I did a video in October on how to overclock your CPU using liquid nitrogen, this time I show you how to overclock your graphics cards using LN2. It covers preparing the GPU, installing the liquid nitrogen pot and getting started overclocking.

Bulldozer CPU and Memory Frequency Overclocking

By Jake Crimmins, on December 19th, 2011

Overclocking the new AMD Bulldozer CPUs on liquid nitrogen is easy, fun and affordable even for a beginner. The new generation of Bulldozer CPUs are reaching speeds near or over 8GHz on liquid nitrogen. Along with high CPU frequencies the processors are able to run memory at high frequencies as well. In this blog I am going to show you the basic template of the settings I use to reach high core and memory frequencies on liquid nitrogen. Be careful though because overclocking on liquid nitrogen voids most warranties and can kill your hardware!
