Corsair Does the Math, Says High Frequency + Low Voltage = Dominator GT

People always say how you can't have your cake and eat it too, but what good is a slice of delicious cake if you can't cram down your throat? Not any good at all if you ask us, and though we don't recommend feasting on sticks of RAM (not in the literal sense, anyway), Corsair's latest memory kit is a prime example of why you shouldn't pay attention to silly sayings.


Proving that low voltage doesn't have to translate into low performance, Corsair today announced the launch of a new 4GB Dominator GT memory that's "highly overclocked" to 2133MHz, yet only requires 1.5V. Not too shabby, and neither are the timings: 9-11-9-27. In other words, you can have your cake and eat it too.

Corsair says its new kit will start shipping in the next couple of weeks for $170.
