I am OFFICALLY DONE WITH CORSAIR MEMORY AND THEIR PRODUCTS

[perkam]

Their Vengeance series memory is only one product from a line of products.

Why would you blame all of Corsair for shoddy memory covers?

Though I will be avoiding that memory as well now.

True but I expected more of them as a company when this happened as easy as me moving modules from slots 2 and 4 to slots 1 and 3

They claim to bake the head spreaders to the mem modules

GSkill from here on out

To be rather blunt, I have a set of corsair that the spreaders fell off of......also a set of OCZ and gskill.

I also have sets that i removed spreader.

The way that thermal adhesive is shredded it sure looks like someone was curious what IC's were under the hood.........

Nope I was moving them around and putting pressure on them to seat them in the slots and the heatspreaders separated causing this. There is only some clear sticky stuff holding it all together

I think you are wrong Perkam.
Dominators = baked heatspreaders...

Value, XMS, Vengeance, SO-DIMM and everything else is either no heatspreader or sticky thermal crap.

However... I honestly dont get this thread, the baked heatspreaders of dominator rocks, one of the 2 main leaps that Corsair has... Corsairs main leap is their unique PCB quality.

No XMS3 DHX were definitely baked.

There's no chance that sticky crap could pull a chip off unless it was UBER sticky.

i have a set of those and they are stickered on, u can see the sticky stuff on it.

i thought that they were all sticky unless it had the older dominator style spreaders

Get the XSPC Universal Memory water cooling set...you get 3/16'' thick aluminum heatspreaders for two sticks, a copper block, and 0.5mm thick heat transfer pads....all for $60. It is unbelievably super high quality for cheap...I was very impressed. Just had to type something out with my new Corsair K70 Cherry mechanical keyboard........I wouldn't say their keyboards are cheap, I've never seen an aluminum keyboard like this and every key is back lit with a red led....nice!
