Review on πŸ’Ύ Corsair Dominator TWIN2X4096-8500C5D 4GB (2 X 2GB) PC2-8500 1066MHz DDR2 CL5 Dual Channel Desktop Memory by Noah Lewis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Big memory is good for memory

When I built my new PC a few months ago this memory was very expensive so I opted for a decent 800MHz DDR2 which is not SLI compatible . I was sad when I did a service rating and every aspect of the PC was a 5.9 and the memory was a 4.3. After installing this memory and changing the settings in the bios, I was able to install 5.7. Since some of the programs I run don't work well with a 64-bit operating system, I have to stick with 4 gigabytes. The storage itself is outstanding. I'm pretty sure if I overclocked it (currently at 0% OC) I'd get a 5.9 (max score). Since Vista uses a lot of memory, this is a plus. I might even have to try it later on my XP Pro and Linux systems to see how well it works (or doesn't).

Pros
  • Many will do
Cons
  • Hard to say
