Corsair dominates at 1300MHz

Memory crown changes hands
Friday, 26 January 2007, 10:07
WE HAD a chance to play with Corsair Dominator 10000C5DF memory and we were told that we should get more than 1280 MHz. That was exactly our previous score with OCZ Flexx 9600 memory and you can check some details here or more detailed INQpression here.

Again, we used EVGA Nforce 680i motherboard and even Corsair recommends this motherboard for its memory. The interesting part was that we got to this 1300MHz milestone at 2.4 V memory. We managed to run PI and some other tests and will provide more, later. We managed to boot and enter Windows at both 1320MHz and 1333MHz but at press time we cannot yet run stable at those speeds.

Corsair Dominator 10000C5 works at 1300MHz with 5-5-5-18 timings, 2.4 Voltage and this is the fastest memory that we've tested so far. We had to overclock the CPU at 330 MHz - 11x300 MHz FSB but our Core 2 Extreme can easily take it even at default voltage.

Here's the proof. µ
