Product Description
The Dominator Series Twin2X2048-8500C5D is a 2048 MByte matched pair of DDR2 SDRAM DIMMs built using Corsair's latest high performance heat sink with Dual-Path Heat Xchange (DHX) technology. This part delivers outstanding performance in the latest generation of dual-channel DDR2-based motherboards. It has been tested extensively in multiple DDR2 motherboards to ensure compatibility and performance at its rated speed. This memory has been verified to operate at 1066MHz at latencies of 5-5-5-15. The Twin2X2048-8500C5D comes with Enhanced Performance Profiles (EPP), the open standard for performance module SPD's jointly developed by Corsair and NVIDIA. EPP SPD's on Corsair modules allow users to automatically configure EPP enabled motherboards with aggressive memory performance settings, for maximum memory and system performance. Performance of these modules incorporating DHX can be further enhanced by using the optional Dominator Airflow Fan, for even more cooling and protection.

1 out of 5 stars The product is excellent , but the announcement of Amazon was not just.   July 30, 2008

When i bought the announcment was Corsair Dominator 2X2GB Kit PC2-8500 1066MHz DDR2 (TWIN2X2048-8500C5D)=total 4GB , but when i received the product , Surprise !!!! i received just two modules of 1GB each .

The product is excellent , but is very important to access the site of corsair to verify the compatibility with your motherborad , the link is http://www.corsair.com/configurator/default.aspx

BYE.



1 out of 5 stars Amazon sends 2 x 1024 sticks not 2 x 2048   July 2, 2008

"2X2GB Kit"
"TWIN2X2048"
Twice in the same product name this ram is listed as two times 2048.
How does this add up to only 2 sticks of 1024 ram?
If I stretch my imagination I could see a small chance that this is misleading naming at the best.
But it has to be a mistake right?
The packaging says "2GB . 2 x 1GB DDR2"
The ram itself has "2 x 1024" on each stick's labels, I'm sure this denotes that each stick is one of a pair.
Does this mean that Amazon gets to keep my shipping when I return this mislabeled ram?
Get it together.

Used in my high end DIY build along with a Q6600 and (2) 8800GTXs. Only concern was that the 680i mobo did not say that this memory was SLI ready. Other than that...everything about the memory was great for OC-ing and performance.
