Corsair Dominator Platinum 16 GB (4x4GB DDR3-2666)

The Corsair Dominator Platinum 16 GB arrives as 4 modules of 4GB each with 16GB of DDR3 on board. It is rated at 2666 MT/s with a CAS latency of 11, working out to a true latency of about 8.3ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. Once memory clears 3600 MT/s, frequency gains taper off, so the 16GB on offer here is the spec that counts for modern AAA titles.

As a premium DDR3 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. Expect to pay around $323.51, which lands it among premium options.
