Review on πŸ’¨ Corsair Dominator Platinum Airflow RGB LED Memory Fan Cooling: Enhance Your System's Performance and Style with CMDAF2 by Joe Meyer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Setup is easy and helps cool other components.

. I recently changed the RAM in my case, the old set had a RAM cooler that was ported to another system. I noticed that my m.2 drive with the heatsink located just below the CPU socket and above the graphics card was consistently hot at 8-10 degrees without a RAM cooler, bringing it to 52-54 degrees. Since the CPU has a closed-loop water cooler, I bought this RAM cooler to not only cool the 3733's RAM, but also to move nearby components like the m.2. After adding this, my m.2 drive keeps around 46C under load, I could probably lower it with a more advanced heatsink option, but that's good. On the other hand, RGB was easy to set up and install. However, I got one star for using both USB2 motherboard connectors on the Corsair h100i cooler. I have way more SATA and PCIe ports than USB2 ports, I understand this is convenient but I would really like to be able to use one or the other.

Pros
  • Only positives.
Cons
  • . Some defects.
