This is indeed the best DDR3 so far.
This is indeed the best DDR3 so far.
They look the part but the price will be ridiculously high. Just wait Kingston will be releasing the same RAM at half the price of these red GT's, they will use the same IC's.
Yeah, Kingston will probably catch up too, a little late but hopefully it will. Is good to know OCZ has a kit like this already. G.Skill has also a kit like this HERE.
Man, it feels good to see that each other will have to compete :D
Must keep fighting!!
Must keep fighting!!
Ahhh well I give up..... its sexy and I want one set!! :p:
I waiting for these to do my next upgrade, hopefully they'll come to market in the next 60 days. And, Intel's MAX on the memory controller in the CPU is 1.65v, not 1.35v. If that was the case, none of the motherboards out there would be in compliance.
The max voltage at a value of 1.65 is the Dram voltage which is the one you're talking we're talking about QPI/VTT voltage which is 1.35 max recommended.
You guys are really eager to be dropping this kind of cash on a 6Gb Kit... :D
I got my my Official response from G. Skill earlier today. It seems all of these DDR3-2000 CL9 to the upcoming CL7 Ram kits will need to be ran with QPI/DRAM vtt at 1.55 - 1.65v.
The G. Skill Black Pi DDR3-2000 will run at 9-9-9-24 1N with 1.55v on the QPI/DRAM vtt.
Dear customer
All DDR3 2000 module requires QPI Voltage 1.55v to run.
You need to have good air flow on NB chipset. 1.35v is way to low though it is the recommend the safe voltage.
As long as NB chipset temp is not too hot, it is ok.
Thank you
GSKILL SUPPORT
Weird cause every body keeps saying that voltage is dangerous for the CPU if it's related to the NB temperature then its kinda confusing :P.
I love this pretty good looking RAMs! :eek2:
Waiting for some OC Results! :up:
Oh my gosh they look ammmaaazziing :eek: As someone else already mentioned they really match the Bloodrage color scheme :cool:
They should start selling 'RED' combo like BloodRage+Corsair Dominator GT+4870X2/or single, lol.
Waiting for some retail prices, gonna be sky high probably unfortunately :<
I cant wait to see the price tag on these beasts
I was thinking blood rage also. How about green tops of DFI and blue for P6T and Gigabyte? :)
Now the real question: 2000@1.65v, what are they at 1.9v or 2.0v? Are the ok at those voltages? Those are very tight timings. Will they really be DDR3-2400 at the 9-9-9-9-24/28/30 that current DDR3-2000 have?
Haha, rarely read so much BS in so few lines before, only maybe in Asus tech support emails :rofl: :rolleyes:Quote:

1. Going above 1,35V VTT 24/7 DOES mean running your CPU out of spec, and should therefore not be recommended by memory manufacturers, simple as that. In my personal opinion, chances for CPU damage beyond 1,5V are given but unlikely, but that's just me - time will tell I guess.
2. Keep your NB cool because the mem controller still sits in the NB with i7 - yeah right :ROTF::ROTF::ROTF:
3.:ROTF::ROTF::ROTF::ROTF::ROTF::ROTF:Quote:

That's about all I got in response, sorry guys :rofl:
4. Erm wait.. QPI voltage? Huh? Is that the NB voltage? I should think not :rofl:
See what happens when Asus names the VTT "QPI Voltage"? :p:
The award for most clueless tech support hereby goes to G.Skill.. no wait, Asus can't be beaten in that respect, not even by this :rolleyes:
sorry to say buddy G skill normally has good support dont base your opinion on one experience their isnt only one person that works at G skill
Oh well, I may have overreacted a bit. Still this reply is hilarious indeed...
no matter what company's support you call you will get one bad apple thats why you hang up and hit redial
So how can 2000 memory be used on a motherboard that is meant to support 1600? this stuff confuses the hell out of me. :(
So, can this memory be used on a P6T and run stable for a year or so?
^its bad for your electricity to run your pc for an entire year
if u guys think this is bad
here is my conversation with convergent ( local distro for ocz) to the sales guy name melvin
cstkl1: hi i would like to know the pricing of the ocz blade and eta
melvin: i am sorry its not in our pricelist
cstkl1: i fully anticipated that and would like you to order it for me
melvin: ok so this is the 2000mhz CL7??
cstkl1: yup
melvin: y not go for our other cl7's?? platinum etc
cstkl1:(wtf)... what cl7's are u talking about
melvin: we have some 1333's cl7's etc
cstkl1: eh i would like to run 2000mhz Cl7 at 1.65v 1N
melvin: u cannot run 1N on x58..
here is where i put down the phone
back to the topic..
does anybody know when the gt's will be on sale officially??
dont mind paying for these
somebody in singapore managed to get one magically.
update
confirmed ocz has around 200 units of the blades but the selling price is at
RM 2300.. exchange rate of 3.5 so that would make it USD657
so far pretty darn pissed with ocz and their binning.. seems to only works on the the motherboards they binned with which is usually one or two...
corsair dominators seems to work flawlessly for the ddr3's on most of mobo's
so what u guys think wait or just take the ocz's??
prefer corsair though...
Well I don't know. I am not bragging here, but for the cost its rediculous. I have 6GB of Mushkins at 7-8-7-20-1T at 1600 1.65v. Performance is so close to above that the price of $250 for all vs. 650 not worth it.
-R
this modules are still not available in my country for those who where able to buy this kits can you test it if it can go a little better with the timings 7-7-7-20-1T 2000Mhz 1.65V instead of the 7-8-7-20-1T 2000Mhz 1.65V at least 4 hrs prime stable? thanks
Or just do 10 minutes linpack instead ;)
How are the Dominator 1866 kits, they are 400.00 for 3 x 2G
or should i just get the 1600's.... naaa
u guys do realise that this is x58 right
and ts posted a 63 hours memtest86
10 minutes linpack is a breeze
and for prime???.. errr this is ram stabiliy test not proc...
for x58 only have to make sure the qpi is stable via memtest
its not as complicated as 775 testing for failure of gtl etc
not that much bro
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...&postcount=584
unless its 200bclk like the coolaler review
i think this is what he meant
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...&postcount=594
almost there with 2000mhz CL7 but bclk 200 1600 7-8-7-1t
Lol - try LinX (latest version) or run IBT 2x, there you go, 100% with HT enabled, and 5-8C higher temps than prime blend (on water).
ALso you obviously have no clue that SmallFFT isn't the most stressful test for i7 - due to the IMC, blend actually makes the CPU run a few degrees hotter than SmallFFT. Observed by me and a few other people as well, somewehre in the middle of the Gigabyte-EX58 thread.
Next time try to fool with someone who doesn't run 3 different i7 rigs :rolleyes:
There is a lot you didn't know, and until a few days ago I shared many of your beliefs (SmallFFT being the most stressful etc) but they just don't hold true with i7.
What I didn't like is you claiming that a few passes of memtest would be enough to determine i7 QPI/memspeed stability, therefore spreading false information.
Like I said, from my own testing experience with i7 and 6/12GB of ram, linpack will freeze after 30s if your IMC can't handle the speed/timings/whatever while memtest will still run fine (even if you only run on 50% CPU).
Attached is a LinX run using 64bit mode and 11GB of ram - you can't stress i7 more than that. CPU is watercooled and ambients are low, on a stock cooler this would be >90C. Prime blend reached 61-62C after 53 hours with the same settings, if I'd have run linpack longer it would peak at around 67-68C.
Also the rams get blistering hot after only 20 minutes of linpack, while they are still cool to the touch after 53h of prime blend (ran custom inplace tho)
So linpack is the way to go with i7 - prime used to be better at detecing mobo instabilities, but since the NB doesn't have to do a lot on x58 it hardly matters any more, it all comes down to the CPUs really.
post a screenshot of task manager on loading of all the cores
how u did u manage to get it to 100%
just tested
linx.. on a 3gb kit
its way less and doesnt load all cores to 100%
are u using 0.5.4??
and is still cooler than small fft
will post u the linx in abit running on diagnostic mode to get the most mem i can
ok got it..
testing now..
although my aircon is not at full blast will post comparison
Well, running linpack on 2Gb (Vista eats 1GB of your 3) is of course way less efficient than running it on 5 or 11GB... but it should still be at least on par with prime if run at 100%.
Dualist (author of linx) said he discovered a way to force linpack running 8 threads in 1 instance even when there are only 4 physical cores, so we'll be rid of the dual instance run soon enough.
ok here is just 10 mins of linx at room ambient of 25C
the orthos priority 10 was run at 21C
orthos + memtest hci + 4 passest of memtest86
http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/l..._Untitled4.jpghttp://i287.photobucket.com/albums/l...ntitled-25.jpg
vs linx
http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/l...ntitled-26.jpg
do u want me to run an hour.
when i was testing intel 775 e8600 if i can pass orthos priority 10 stable for 1-3 hours it will guarantee my vcore voltage for ibt
for mem for 775 is the 4096 test .. go read the rampage extreme which i posted about
for 775 gtl try the blend and custom priority 10 1min... in rampage extreme
this ensures ibt run on 4gb on 775 up to 100 passes tested.. thats roughly 8 hours
also the difference is temp would be something in the region of e8600 4.25ghz at 1.2625 IBT 68C /e8600 4.5 at 1.375 orthos at 69C
for this i7 i will stick by the orthos priority 10 small fft and memtest86.
single linx would allow me to run 3.8ghz at 89C at 1.224
orthos priority 10 windows diagnostic mode is 94C at 1.24v (1.24 bsod) until the computer will reset with message cpu too hot
anyway how long more u want me to run linx??
what i dont like about ure statement is ure so sure that u have tested every possible test
take note this is with intel stock cooler
Dear Mr. Yellowbeard,
Any news on when these will be available? Eagerly awaiting or just plain scared of seeing Dinos22 in a G-string? Still haven’t figured out my preferences 100% in this case but seems to be leaning towards first alternative. Then again, you’ll never know and we might miss out on something here... :D
damn it ppl stop picking on me
my arse is not THAT hairy :D
:confused: Anyone hear of these? ( Geil ) Website here http://www.geil.com.tw/products/showSpec/id/149
I was searching the net and stumbled on this page. Looks like nice ram and the heat shield appear to be able to be removed for water cooling. To bad ram couldnt be sold with or without heat spreaders.

When are the corsairs being released?
well HEXUS says that it will be released by the end of the month and likely for $500( i really hope that is true :D)
also there will be 1,866 CL7 edition launched soon after
LINK: http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=16781
just have to decide whether to get the bloodrage or wait for the evga ftw board now, lol

Around $500
During CES, Corsair exhibited an ASUS X58 Rampage II Extreme running its upcoming Dominator GT DDR3 2000MHz 7-8-7-20 sticks at just 1.65 volts.
Before the end of this month, the company will officially launch a 6GB kit for around $500, which is a fairly reasonable price point considering the higher estimates that have been circulating the past couple months.
As mentioned earlier, the new sticks are powered by Elpida's new 50nm integrated circuits which are capable of remarkably low latencies at high frequencies up to 2500Mbps.
Corsair will reveal several other new products later this January, including a DDR3 1866MHz kit with CL7 timings using the new ICs as well. We look forward to covering the product lineup as it hits the retail market.
http://www.fudzilla.com/index.php?op...11377&Itemid=1
BA or other,
do we have a eta date on retail stock yet on these sticks?
thanks
wonder what these Elpida pricing costs are compared to samsung hcf0 and d9gtr, d9gts, d9jnm etc ?
:shrug: Sorry, no ETA. :shrug:
Found this website today on the ram modules, very informative:
http://translate.google.co.uk/transl...D%26as_qdr%3Dd
Any update when these be released?
There is no release date yet. Bachus is still barricaded in the lab getting them just right. And, there is also no retail price set yet, anything stated is pure speculation.
get them out SOON!
I'd rather buy corsair than A-Data.
i can see these in my next build.....
These coming with a matching fan cooler?
Looks like release date is closing fast. This place is already taking pre-orders for OCZ Blade kits for $614.99. Corsair should follow suit soon.

-=Mark=-
$614??? Insane money to be spent on memory in the current economic climate. :)
How come these other companys get their versions out sooner then consair?
thats freakin unbeliviably high. We just lost 75,000 jobs in america today and they are pricing these modules waaay above cost. wtf. They may sell a few to enthusiast that dont have to worry about money but i'd say every body's job and pay check will have been effected by the current economic climate
I agree. That's some insensitive :banana::banana::banana::banana:. I'm sure that company is run by Gordon Gekko. I'm disgusted, but this is a niche product for a niche market so as long as there is demand for goods that set themselves apart from the rest by people who want to set themselves apart from the rest then nobody can fault Corsair's opportunistic behaviour.
I paid usd $729 for my original set of cellshock pc14400 when ddr3 first came out and thats for 2gig kit not a 6gig kit ;)
anything less than $729 for me is a stepup :)
It's reasonable price. I've heard that even :banana::banana::banana::banana: industry is having problems but gaming industry is just getting better and bigger :D
This also possibly is affecting production (sorry if its a repost)

Japan-based DRAM maker Elpida Memory is currently in negotiations with Powerchip Semiconductor Corporation (PSC), Rexchip Electronics and ProMOS Technologies over a merger deal and is considering to release shares to the Taiwan government in exchange for funding, according to sources at DRAM makers.
Elpida has opened up in a bid to beat it main rival Micron. If Taiwan government becomes the biggest shareholder of Elpida, the problem of giving Taiwan DRAM makers the company's latest process technologies will be easily solved, the sources noted.
Officials in Taiwan's Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) said they will need to see Elpida's proposal before making any moves, but if Elpida is willing to release its process technology to Taiwan makers, they should be able to pass the proposal to the legislative house for evaluation.
I've resolved to pre- order the OCZ memory, since all I'm getting it the run around form Corsair. I pre ordered 2 weeks ago, and still waiting. Geez. ther gotta be a better way of getting info on ETA of releasing products so people aren't sitting on ther hands looking at boxed parts waiting to be assembled.
dude as i said
if u want it
easy just contact ocz in taiwan where 200 pieces of the blades are still there
I agree this was posted on December 11 and here we are almost February and no official word or comment on release dates or pricing.... Its nice to have a sneak peek of upcoming products and I definately appreciate corsair doing so dont get me wrong. But if they have had these modules in the lab for 2+ months now you would think something would be known about it...
maybe with the reported wide variation in i7 cpu memory controller performance/consistency from cpu to cpu, they have to double check for compatibility ? or could be lack of source ics.
Just do what i do, break out the old dual channel kits for a spin, you'd be surprised - I'm playing with 6x1GB HCF0/D9GTR mix right now hehe
Not of all ICs can do 2000 CL7 1.65V. Every week ICs are different. I just heard new ICs are wrost than before. That's why they still are not available now.
sigh, I just sold my dual channel OCZ 1800 memory and my crappy 920 on ebay. I timed my auction so it would end the day my new parts arrived. The buyers were late in payment so I installed my new CPU with the dual channel ocz. I hit 4.GHz with ease at 1.3750v vcore and memory at 2000MHz at 1.890v with most settings on auto.
I put my corsair triple channel in and couldn't seem to get 1600 very easy. I guess I need to do some tweaking. I guess I'll have time since I'm sure I'm gonna have a long wait before 2000 comes in-stock.
I wish I would have kept those dual OCZ sticks now. They rocked!
-=Mark=-
damn thats not good.
dont trust ocz on their binning with ddr3.
the dominators just by looks already kills kekeke
so basically nobody knows right.. when the gt's will be out..
already told the distro to book 2 sets onces the stocks are for sale.
I have a gut feeling they're be showing up soon considering the week 05, 2009 label on my set :) Bachus's set week 47, 2008.
My first proper triple channel DDR3 kit - 6GB Corsair TR3X6G2000C7GTF Dominator GT triple channel DDR3 memory rated at DDR3-2000Mhz 7-8-7-20 1.65v. They're literally hot out of the oven so to speak - week 05, 2009 from label which is last week!

Well be testing the Corsair Dominator GTs with i7 920 and my rock solid DFI UT X58-T3EH8 motherboard so keep an eye out for the results :D
dirty dirty dirty...that is just dirty. can't wait to see what you and that board can do with them.
i finally got my DFI, looking forward to a proper kit to put it through its paces. maybe i will get lucky with a red kit too :D
they sure would look pretty...

wow those look nice eva, can't wait till these things go public.
You know when you're a memory addict when you mistakenly took that photo's PCI-E slots as additional memory dimm slots at first glance LOL
Interesting to see how you fair with your DFI board - hopefully together we can find more tweaks and stuff to squeeze more out of it :)
thanks :)

Bachus, about to buy, but...what's the difference between the 2 6gb kits, with $100 price difference?
OOPS!:shakes: nevermind, one is 1866, the other 2000.
Perfect timing. :)
AHHHHHH SwEEEETTTTT !!!
Worked for me. :shrug:
i wish my frickin tax return would hurry. :mad:
Your Super Moderator forces are incredible because now it worked for me too... :D Thank you!
Ps. Turned out that Mr. Russell from Corsair registered my feverish attempts to buy some GT sticks and checked out what was wrong and – of course - fixed it. All international orders should be ok now. Thank you, Mr. Russell. You are a Prince!!!
Is this a misprint...

Is this correct? The 2000MHz version says the same thing. Were these Dominator 1866 MHz GT's also tested at 2000MHz?
