Corsair Dominator Platinum 8 GB (2x4GB DDR3-2666)

The Corsair Dominator Platinum 8 GB ships as 2 modules of 4GB each with 8GB of DDR3 on board. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. It is specced for 2666 MT/s with a CAS latency of 12, working out to a true latency of about 9ns.

Once memory clears 3600 MT/s, frequency gains taper off, so the 8GB on offer here is the spec that counts for esports and everyday use. Builders shopping for older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4 will find this premium DDR3 option easy to justify. Expect to pay around $325.26, which lands it among premium options.
