Legit Reviews has posted a review on the Corsair 2GB PC2-10000C5DF Dominator Memory Kit which are rated for operation at 1250MHz. These recently released modules are optimized for the new NVIDIA nForce 680i SLI-base platform. In addition, the pair of Corsair CM1X1024-10000C5D modules utilize the latest Corsair in heat sink design thanks to their use of the awesome looking black DOMINATOR heat sinks. These heat sinks have Dual-Path Heat Xchange (DHX) technology and can be coupled with the Corsair Dominator Airflow Fan to help keep the modules nice and cool.

One of the major selling points of this kit is that Corsair put together the complete package for consumers. By bundling the Corsair AIRFLOW with the modules it makes for the best overclocking experience we have ever had right out of the box. Just minutes after opening the retail packaging we had the modules up and running above 1300MHz, which is crazy seeing how a couple years ago those speeds were impossible to reach. It makes you wonder what speeds will be reached by the end of the year if things keep going like this.

The performance of the Corsair TWIN2X2048-10000C5SDF 2GB DDR2-10000 Dominator Series was nothing less than impressive. Having the ability to run CAS 3 at 853MHz, CAS 4 at 1135MHz and CAS 5 at 1314MHz makes wide range of options for enthusiasts and just happen to be some of the best timings that we have ever seen at 2.4V. I can't say enough good things about the overclocking of these modules as they are really impressive. If you don't overclock and adjust the timings on this kit you are really missing out!

When it comes to pricing these modules do cost more than most, but to be honest you get what you pay for with these modules. I've personally had the chance to use several of these TWIN2X2048-10000C5DF memory kits and every single one would do over 1310MHz with CAS 5 timings right out of the box. A number of smaller companies often send out hand picked samples to 'beta testers' and tell them to post the results around the internet. What happens is people order them quickly find out that their modules can't reach near the speeds they saw these other people reaching. Instead of buying two or more kits trying to find a great set of overclockers save yourself some time and let Corsair do the sorting for you. The fallout rate on finding the right Micron IC's is really high and the supply is tight, so the $649.00 price tag makes sense if you look at the numbers.
