[454mood]

4:07 Shaky hands!!

[TurbidAttack954]

[MythicDaedra]

red=speed

[TurbidAttack954]

I watercooled my corsair ram

[envyus83]

@TurbidAttack954 Why? Whhhhy? lool.

[FMGProductions100]

If anyone could tell me some good ram that also has a good army type color scheme(Green, sand coloured, gun metal grey etc...) I'd appreciate it. Building a new X79 rig soon.

[babydash123]

@FMGProductions100 red and black, red and white, red and red, red and even more red !

[FMGProductions100]

@babydash123 Red is a terrible colour to go with an army coloured scheme :P

[lXlNismo11lXl]

RAM Memory Unboxings

[rpw88]

the pin out isnt for "testing" its for the airflow pro edition for giving out heat/usage signals to display on there led display

[kriket67]

reminds me of dragon ball gt :D

[onetimeheroonFIRE]

i think it is

[gamerbwoi]

Is the socket on the RAM for the corsair airflow PRO?

[gamerbwoi]

laugh at 2.56 is making me buy this!

[SuperOddsmurf]

" The red at the fan makes it go faster" lol

[LaurenceM849]

lol at the "fan" joke

[233kosta]

The red makes it go fast? My rig must be REALLY fast!!!

[tron2025]

Linus we want the HD 7970 unboxing ... there is a girl made it and she said that ur not around ?!

[RbRubbertoe]

can the Fan be used for Corsair Vengeance Ram? or is it just for the Dominator....

[RumbleM0NKEY]

What happens when you touch the gold strips? I touched the strips on my RAM..

[PROSTO4Tabal]

Too much drinking 4:10 ;D

[lokofaith]

the strips goddamit!!!!

[junie4693]

[KatanMusicCover]

Hey its better them him touching the Chips... xDDD the Gol Strips can be cleaneades the chips cant be fixed xDD

[Aym3n87]

So dump dont touch the gold strips ... -.-

[timhtje]

Writes a note : '' Red makes things go faster ''.

[MindSeeR666]

I want to buy this fan separately but I can't find it anywhere, not even ebay.. I can only get the blue :p

[fsastudent]

@MindSeeR666 I've been doing research on the Blue vs this for a while. Found out, there is no difference performance wise. Just this one is a little better built, but you can buy the blue (8gb 2x4gb) for 49.99 on amazon!

[MindSeeR666]

@fsastudent Thanks for the help man.. I'm going to get ram Kingston Hyperx T1 Black 24GB with the blue ram cooler on.. ATM I'm using an Antec Spot Cool.

[junie4693]

Does Anyone Know the difference between the Corsair Dominator GT and the Corsair Dominator or do they just charge you more for color

[draphius]

wow he must not be that into computers if he gets this excited about unboxing it instead of using it to OC his computer like a real junkie would do. fuck the box

[MOZZWIGAN]

@ 4:13 YOUR HAND LOOKS LIKE YOUR RATTLING FOR A SHOOT OF METH

[MOZZWIGAN]

im buting this soon haha CANT WAIT

[frozenskipper]

here, this kit costs $400 :(

[englesledgehammer]

the pin is for their airflow pro thing

[ItalyNerf]

Yayy, watching this and i got 2GB DDR2 800mhz RAM. NICE.

[TheGhostGhillie]

i guess i have to paint all my computer components red then...

1 gallon red paint thrown in the pc will work i guess >,<

my comp will be super fast

[longmage4]

The pins is for testing the ram.

[ThaiPredator]

whts better more gb or mhz

[GreatSteamingCatBox]

@ThaiPredator That really depends, I have 8gb at 1600mhz as of current and it's fine

[sugamwtoxristo]

@ThaiPredator both

[FpsMercenary]

is it possible to replace the fans with other fans? i want the glow from the gelids in there, i got the 800D obsidian with the large window and i think it will pimp it up a little :)

[Ninjawithaphone]

...meant I hope that OCZ can repair the bad stick - I really want to put my OCZ Blade memory back into my main gaming rig!

[Ninjawithaphone]

Just bought 6GB of the Corsair Dominator GT DDR3 2000 Mhz CMT6GX3M3A2000C8 (8-9-8-24 @ 1T) for $99 on Amazon. Great memory that works well with my EVGA Classified X58 mobo. Though this memory is not as good as my OCZ Blade DDR3 2000 Mhz OCZ3B2000LV6GK (7-8-7-20 @ 1T). Unfortunately, one stick of my OCZ Blade memory fried on me after having it for 28 months and I had to buy the Corsair Dominator memory as a replacement. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Corsair can repair it...

[nategold911]

the pins on the sides is for a special temperature monitor

[ZPGaming]

I've gone and done something stupid, I bought this and the thermaltake frio, I doubt they'll fit together.. *Facepalm* Oh well, no harm in trying.

[TheKevinNgoShow]

is it true that the red makes it go faster i am a noob

[TheMeaty234]

do the fans blow air on or suck heat off?

[jl644]

the pins is for a light accessory... sold seperately

[abnermioten]

it looks like a comb!!!

[xxdeejinxx]

He touched the gold strips, get him!

[Jmerino7]

@xxdeejinxx Only geeks would get this.

[nervoustwitch77]

@Jmerino7 correction a geek with plenty money i got the 2134 kit probably same but through tiger and was 279 bucks dont regret it it is smokin fast for 12 gigs

[BN3GATIV3]

You do have a lisping sausage jockey voice! Red was right.

If you dont know what your looking at,dont bother unboxing.

[Cutless9610]

Red mks urvrythng fstr u 1diots. Stp h8in, th1s d00d is leg1t, h8trs.

That's what it would sound like if I was a kool-aid sucking fanboy like most of the morons commenting on this video.

[oRedRaider]

I swear, it sounds like you have a tubular object in your lispy mouth when you talk...

Suck much tube lately???

[EuuDie]

the pin was made for SLI / Crossfire your RAM !

nah juz kidding :P

[MrForestpotato]

if i have a coolermaster V8, will it able to mount the airflow fan on the DIMMS

motherboard is Asus Sabertooth 990FX

[fotorescent]

@MrForestpotato an an ASUS P6X58D-E with the V8 as a CPU cooler, i can tell you it won't fit. i put corsair vendance instead ;) as your motherboard looks similar for the cpu and ram position, i would advise you to take vengeance too or any other ram memory without any fan if you change your ram memory

[MrForestpotato]

@fotorescent thank you very much. Really really appreciate it.

[xxbrandonshireyxx]

How fast will my grandma go if I paint her red?

[BosnaVolimte]

@xxbrandonshireyxx Like a boss!

[cheese00chicken]

You connect the pin to the airflow pro.

[stammusr]

2:56 hahahaha

[Shibiz]

The pin on the side is for testing the ram.

[brodysstuff]

@Shibiz nope the pins are for the airflow pro light kit

[Sketch1994]

@Shibiz Testing the ram for what?

[ken6x]

@Shibiz he should send you one of those kits

[babydash123]

@Shibiz how can I test them ? and by testing you mean what ?

[MysticalOrca]

I bought this with my sempron 140 and voodoo 2 gpu, I cant wait!

[JaCieKochams2]

can i mix corsair ddr3 1333 and 1600

[reikoreyuki]

Can I mount the Dominator Fan on Corsair Vengeance? 

[ballsout211]

[MRIMBA007]

@LinusTechTips 4:20 i think its for the fan??? not sure

[nikanj]

3:08 I've broken so many cheap ball point pens doing this :P.

[peterhejlejensen]

RAM cooling is bullshit

[redraven222]

The pins are for the Dominator airflow Pro

[afnanmahmood1996]

I like this memory very much but it is not available in our country

[DanMaklen]

I think that the pins on the sides are for the 'Corsair AirFlow Pro'.

[jmpatinhas15]

if you die your hair red, you run faster?

[markhogsvagen]

@jmpatinhas15 Does that mean that gingers run fast???

[jmpatinhas15]

@markhogsvagen

i guess...

[markhogsvagen]

@jmpatinhas15 Hahahah XD

[4628JP]

How tall are heatsinks

[gabrocki]

hi guys, its a little bit off topic, but which one is better? Kingston HyperX Blu 1333MHz 4GB DDR3 (one stick or ram) or Corsair XMS3 1333MHz DDR3? both are CL9 rams (i guess) and one stick of 4GB, not 2x2GB RAM kits. pls reply which is better

[Tzeny15]

I once read that the memory cooler can be upgraded with some LED strips that light up in sync with memory usage. Myabe that's what it's for.

[TheDudeWithTheDrums]

Who cares about the package?

[CLICKMEYOULOSER]

@MegaDeathwarrant So I pant my 1998 car red and it will go faster then a rocket?

[MegaDeathwarrant]

@CLICKMEYOULOSER according to what this guy said, so yup I guess so.

[DaVillen]

omg this has better packaging, way to go corsair

[jorn89]

Do these fit on corsair vengeance memory? If not, which do fit.

[andreasfup]

these pins are for the CORSAIR AIRFLOW PRO LED MEMORY ACTIVITY AND TEMPERATURE MONITOR

[DARKsonofCHAOS]

4:14 to 4:16 hand vibration due to masturbation.

[DARKsonofCHAOS]

@MegaDeathwarrant your motherboard doesn't have the ability to process task.

[oztrancer]

I'm wondering if you mean you should only get this if you have a i7 extreme, or just an i7 in general. I'm thinking of getting this to compliment i7 950, rampage 3 extreme, and evga gtx580. Is this a bad idea, the 950 being a regular i7??

[MrBlackevo4]

dude at 4:05 what you don't know it. Its for show the temperature of Memory.

[redhatownage]

pretty slow ram

[sammerron]

so i can use this memory with amd cpu yeah? just confusing how its labelled with intel

[Nuage13]

Skip to unboxing 1:20

[caluber55]

i just painted meh old pc red :o my available graphics card memory shit is ovar 9000000!

[tingokuman]

i need a red and black video card now

[5468295]

@tingokuman a reference ati card you mean :P

[tingokuman]

@5468295 those are cool but im a nvidia fanboy i know boooo i gotta couple of ASUS ENGTX580s 380$ each thats a steal got them from amazon of all places.ate up half my budget.

[sexking83]

corsair memory is inferior to gskill memory imo but corsair memory looks better

[tingokuman]

@sexking83 just an fyi corsair dominator gt hold most if not all current overclock world records.also i build rigs and the best bang for your buck if your a sell rigs is gskill.

[TechAmazingness]

Great I just bought a GREEN graphics card...

[TechAmazingness]

@MegaDeathwarrant yes my friend, yes!

[Zillamp3z]

So thats why most Ferrari's are red

[XmortdreadX]

pens should have knifes on them

[jamesbondus182]

AirFlow Pro™ Dynamic Temperature and Activity Display for Dominator Memory

[sydney987321]

The pin outs are for the accesory temp moniter

[TheEDZKIEZ]

Please Help Me. Will The Corsair Dominator GT RAM Fit Under The Noctua NH-D14 CPU Cooler. It's Very Important So please Help Me By Answer My Question, This Question Is Devastating Me, Like Seriously Man!

[Hazuki65]

Just a question ima gonna buy an intel i5 2500k can i use it with a triple channel memorys like this ones?

[tollakt]

you can use them on AMD processors to right?

[nraithatha1995]

@tollakt you can however amd only has dual chanel memory support. so one dimm (module) can't be used unless you have another to go with it. thats if it's god quad channel support

[BN3GATIV3]

@nraithatha1995

You dont know what ypur talking about,add another DIMM and its DUAL channel still...not quad.

Now,take yourself outside and bury yourself.

[gipiac]

who cares what it looks like dude I dont care if they are turd colored with rainbow stickers (which you would like )..... as long as I get more FPS = win.

[stertheder]

@gipiac Heck yea man turds and rainbows are my favorite colors!!! (sarcasm) :) Color can be important if you have a large side window in your case, but i do agree... more FPS=WIN! :)

[ACABB1]

Onlyi ntel ?

[ACABB1]

Only intel processor ??

[JustinasVaic]

linus hands are shaky !!

[PauliusSmile]

can i put the airflow fan on other ram?

[LACHandLOAD]

The 12gb 2000mhz models are ridiculous.

[druid96]

OMG I am a Computer Technician and i was Cringing in my chair as i watched you touch those Memory chips and put your fingers all over the gold ends, RULE #1 never touch that with your fingers as the oil from your fingers will shorten the life of those chips. I am so glad you arent working for me lol

[Sandor159]

@druid96 Do you believe this yourself?

[druid96]

OMG I am a Computer Technician and i was Cringing in my chair as i watched you touch those Memory chips and put your fingers all over the gold ends, RULE #1 never touch that with your fingers as the oil from your fingers will shorten the life of those chips. I am so glad you arent working for me lol

[rthompson995]

@druid96 OMG no body cares...

[emailprashanthvg]

cool!!!



[deathflyer10]

@oRedRaider @xmanrigger You guys are two retards.

You just dont understand what he says.

[Inzolity]

Mwaha, i just got mine in the mail! :D

[markolo25]

hahaha get it a fan hahahhaha

[USSRman45]

I think the pinout might be for a voltage check for overclocking. Alot of mobos have them as well for more precise overclocks.

[lolatyoufools]

@USSRman45 no

[PCInfos]

the pinout is for the air flow pro memory control pannel ^^

[Arrankiller]

It looks epic in a Asus Rampage lll Extreme

[haqeem18]

hey linus.

u know the connector on the memory 4:10

its a connector for the corsair airflow pro.

what this thing does is show the acttivity and the temperatur of the ram.

(correct me if i wrong)

so the airflow pro need that connector to reed the memory temps

(again sorry for my english)

[axeala]

does this work for AMD Phenom x4 quad core 3.40 GHZ

[cpunge001]

ive got this in 2000MHZ :D

[drKlitzman]

That has got to be the lolziest unboxing ever.

[YamiPoyo]

Do ram coolers often fall out if you move the computer?

[1zCF]

3:02 oww i need i knife...

linus thinked....

i will use my pen as a melee tool xDDDD

[EmperorZhang66]

get it? a fan ? lol

fucking love this guy :)

[Richardhuang70]

nice Integra outside the window ;)

apart from the nice ram modules xD

[323844555]

NERD!

[DackIsBack]

3:08 THE PEN IS MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD!!

[Delcaroll]

lol he said he wasnt a fan of the clamps to the fan lol

[Blauwebek]

the optional part i think is the part that you dont have to put it on them to make it work properly

[Combineartist]

hey linus im just wondering will this ram fit on a motherboard with a coolermaster v10 cpu cooler?

[cjgan80]

@Combineartist I would say no...

Since a V10 is pretty big , and even the fan is convering the RAM Modules

[mcmxyz125]

Right micheallfn I was wondering the same thing, why the hell is he touching the modules everywhere with out even an antistatic wrist band? And yes his fingers have contaminates too, salts and oils, imagine if he was just eating salt and vinegar potatoe chips...omg!

[mcmxyz125]

Dude I thought I heard you say red would make it go faster so I sprayed my memory modules red and now my system won't even boot, what's up?

[FantasyX3I]

@mcmxyz125 hahahhahahahaha LOOOOOOOOL

happy new year HAHAHHAHAHAHH LOL

HAHHAHAHAHAH i cant stop laughing LOL

[themassau]

the pen is mightier than the sword :p

[XxbufferingsxksxX]

O fans. I remember those. Liquid cooled :p!

[cisdac]

@MegaDeathwarrant Yes! And if you have a nice car. Poke holes in the hood to make it go faster as well!

[M0NsteRmAn12]

Wow never seen that on ram before a connector for the fan? i have absolutly no idea

[PCpowerCrew97]

lol megadeathwarrant that is what i was thinking also

[xkewx]

Do you think it will work good with an amd phenom ||x6 1100t ? - You'r biggest 13year old fan :D ( Btw, lover you'r vids :D )

[jacobmcr858]

@xkewx you're gonna want a dual-channel kit for maximum compatibility.

[jebego]

You're voice is penetrating. It creeps into my mind and fucks shit up inside. NONONO

[michaellfn]

dude why the hell are you touching the connector pins on the ram module?! I don't see you grounded and even if you are, it's still not necessary and reckless! chemicals on fingertips can and will tarnish the contacts over time as well!

[fl1pz0R]

@michaellfn He wont use them ^^

[pogi09282805724]

@michaellfn its gold platted to prevent corrosion!!

[ValoozaChild]

Where do you get the money for all this stuff, and what do you do with it? Do you just return everything?

[cheno95]

I supose that the Asus Rampage III mobo's go freakin' Star wars light speed huh?

[233kosta]

"... There's red on the fan, that makes it go faster... the red on the modules also makes them go faster..." I s'pose it's the red on the 5970 that makes it go faster to, eh?

[IPaIKu]

lol a fan of hehe

[warlordmel]

2:56 WTF... is he an donkey?

the connectors is for the Corsair Airflow pro activity & temputure :D
