Test System
Today, we'll be using our Intel X58 testbed. We used Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate x64 and the latest revisions of the benchmarking applications tested. The Corsair Dominator GTs were clocked at DDR3-1866 with 7-8-7-20-2T timings as specified in the XMP profile and the competition were clocked at DDR3-1333 with 7-7-7-21-2T timings and DDR3-1600 with 8-8-8-24-2T timings. For stable DDR3-1866 performance vDIMM was set to 1.64v and vQPI was set to 1.55v. For the overclocking results vDIMM was kept at 1.64v but vQPI was pushed to 1.62v.
