CORSAIR DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB DDR5-5200 64GB RAM

Corsair Memory is yet another example of a great product we have remained loyal to for years. It is flat out reliable. It’s build is beyond reproach and its LEDs look amazing. Our Dominator Platinum memory has the heat spreader embedded directly into the PCB for more efficient cooling with their patented DHX cooling system.

This memory is Intel XMP certified and our ASUS ROG Maximus Hero Z790  motherboard is simply a click in the UEFI in order to push this memory to where it performs best. It was a simple XMP 2.0 profile selection to get us running at 5200. This memory did just amazing in typical benchmarks to include PassMark and AIDA as shown here:

The Corsair HX1000i is a 80 PLUS Platinum Fully Modular Ultra-Low Noise ATX Digital Power Supply (Triple EPS12V Connectors) with a 140mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing Fan.  Perhaps one of my favorite features of this and several otyher Corsair fans is the Zero RPM mode where the fan shuts down completely when it is not needed.
