Combined with Corsair’s iCUE software, the Dominator Platinum RGB has become the best RGB option out there and also the best high-end performance kit. The new LEDs are brighter and more efficient than previous iterations and are only available from Corsair. The Dominator Platinum RGB takes the same best-in-class performance as the original, adds higher-clocked SKUs, and 12 individually addressable Capellix RGB LEDs. Now, the iconic Dominator Platinum is back with a stealthy new design and Corsair's new Capellix LED technology. Its sleek exterior, patented DHX cooling technology, and unrivaled performance has made it a formidable flagship over the years, often topping our best RAM for gaming list. The original DDR4 kit has been our favorite high-end memory bundle for quite some time now. Read our Team Xtreem ARGB DDR4-3600 C14 gaming memory review.Ĭorsair has outdone itself with the Dominator Platinum RGB. If you want to eke out all your CPU has to offer and ensure your system looks fresh in the process, the Team Xtreem ARGB kit is a great option-just a shame about the name. And while that doesn't sound great on paper, it's surprisingly smart in the flesh. Each DIMM features diffused RGB lighting that creates a glow-in-the-dark effect. A kit such as the Team Xtreem is optimal for AMD Ryzen CPUs.Įven the RGB lighting on this kit is kept in moderation. That's great news for anyone eyeing up AMD's Ryzen CPUs, which favor a memory clock around the 3,600MHz mark-thus ensuring the Infinity Fabric clock is kept at a 1:1 ratio with your memory and your chip ticking over happily with minimal latency penalties. However, a recent DRAM price crash and an increasing process maturity in DDR4 production mean kits such as this can often be found for far less than they would've been only a couple of years ago. Not all that long ago, a kit as well-rounded on both price and performance would've been a distant dream.
