Corsair Dominator 1866C8 TEC - Peltier-cooled memories @ NordicHardware

[news 28]

Hi there,

 

Now that we will take a closer look at a new product from Corsair,

Dominator 1866C8 TEC, it wasn't the frequency that caught our interest.

The word TEC is short for Thermal Electric Cooling, also known as

Peltier cooling. In this article we will investigate what kind of effect

you can expect from this kind of cooling on RAM.

/"Normally you don't even consider the heat coming from the memories.

Some have more exclusive heatspreaders than others, some even come with

a fan setup, but overall they tend to just work. But when you start

packing high-density modules, raise the voltage and start overclocking

the effect becomes noticeable. Like with most overclocking lower

temperatures are preferred, thus Corsair's Peltier cooling solution."
