Well before NVIDIA had any plans for DDR3, EPP or Extreme Performance Profile DDR2 memory was making its way into the mainstream. These modules were really designed to work with 680i chipsets, since any AMD solutions have the memory controller moved to the CPU, this eliminated any offerings NVIDIA can give. EPP has made its way into DDR3 with EPP 2.0; this being the DDR3 variation. Today we have Corsair's monster 4GB DDR3 kit (2x2GB) supporting EPP 2.0. Let's see how it copes.

The Corsair XMS3 4GB DDR3 1600 EPP2.0 Kit arrived Technic3D. Technic3D will see as good they are with Overclocking against the OCZ 1.800 Memory Kit and the Dominator Series on Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 and the Zotac nForce 790i Mainboard. You can see 1.800 MHz with CL 10 in the following Review.

We take a quick look at the Corsair Dominator CM3X1024-1800C7DIN DDR3 memory modules today. Corsair rates it at 1800Mhz frequency with timings of 7-7-7-20 at 2.0.

Put simply, Corsair's TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF is a great kit. The DHX cooling system is still the best I've seen to date, cooling both a specially designed PCB and the ICs themselves. BGA based DDR2 modules conduct quite a bit of heat back into the PCB, so this is a very intelligent design that will likely prolong the life of just about any IC under the hood. Corsair's included "Airflow Fan" has also proved to be a very quiet and effective cooler that complements the DHX system nicely. The combination of the unique cooling solution and black PCB also make this a great looking kit.

Fancy a 4GB DDR3 kit capable of running at 2000mhz? Corsair's affectionately named TW3X4G1600C9DHXNV kit may just well be what you're after.

Today I will be looking at one of Corsair's latest system memory products, the TW3X4G1600C9DHXNV, a PC3-12800 4 gig kit verified at DDR3-1600 9-9-9-24 @ 1.8v, and sports nVidia's EPP 2.0 nForce certification, along with Corsair's DHX patented heat spreaders. Will the XMS3 prove to be the strong, stable, trustworthy product that we have come to expect from memory bearing the Corsair sails? Read on to see!

Corsair knows enthusiasts and the performance we demand from our components. Since 1994 the guys over in Fremont, California have met that demand by providing some of the highest quality memory in the market. Within the past couple of years, Corsair has also sailed into the power supply scene and carried over the quality and reliability their brand name is known for.

Corsair has been taunting and teasing us for months now with the prospect of their very first foray into the 1kW jungle. And now, our waiting is over. Join me as I pit the HX1000 in a battle to the death against my hot box of doom and a SunMoon ATE.

The Corsair Survivor 32GB Ultra Rugged USB 2.0 Flash Drive takes off where the Voyager leaves us, and gives us an even higher level of durability. The new casing is now manufacturered from CNC-milled, anodized aircraft-grade aluminum casing that is water resistant to 200M through the use of a EPDM waterproof seal. It is also protected from vibration or impact damage through the use of a molded shock dampening collar. The Survivor is available in sizes from 4GB - 32GB (as tested) and also comes in a GT version up to 16GB's that supports faster transfer speeds than the vanilla Survivor.

As flash memory prices keep lowering, we see higher capacity drives more readily available. We've already looked at the 32GB version of Corsair's Voyager drive. Today, we look at the 32GB of the Survivor. In case you missed our first article on Survivor, we would quickly like to say that its enclosure is one tough shell.

Continually, we find ourselves looking at great Corsair PSUs - the HX, the TX and now the VX have all performed fantastically. The VX550W does exactly what it says on the tin and even though our model dropped a fraction below 80 percent load under significant 3.3V and 5V stress, it's very unlikely they'll ever hit these sorts of values in a real PC. Where it matters the Corsair VX550W works exceptionally well, hitting upwards of 85 percent efficiency throughout the rest of the tests.

How would you like to have 32 gigs of storage in your front pocket? There was a time when just a one gig flash drive was the 'big drive'. Just enough storage room to transport a few pictures of the loved ones or enough to hold a few songs to share with your best friend. Times have changed and needs have increased. Now we have movies, programs and other large forms of files that would shallow a one gig drive. That's when a drive like the Voyager comes into play. Besides an abundance of space, the Voyager is rigid and durable as well.

It amazes me that each year memory companies keep putting out larger and larger memory capacity portable storage devices at lower prices than the previous year while trumping last year's products and their competitors. Corsair, a world leader in producing high end computer and flash memory products sent us their largest capacity USB 2.0 flash drive to date sporting 32 GB of storage. Yes you read correct; a 32 GB USB 2.0 flash drive that you can carry around in your pocket. Crazy isn't it?

For years now Corsair has been on the forefront of leading flash drive innovations, which started with their Flash Voyager series but quickly expanded into their Flash Voyager GT, Flash Survivor GT, and Flash PadLock series. We've reviewed them all and Corsair has certainly had some talented engineers working on these products from the Flash Survivor GT that withstood being submerged into the bottom of a pool, being boiled in a pot of water, and beaten by a hammer to the Flash PadLock, which has a physical lock that will present the flash drive from being mounted unless the appropriate key sequence is entered. While they continue to face new competition -- primarily from OCZ Technology, which has many different innovative flash drives as well such as the Rally 2 Turbo, ATV Turbo, and Mega-Kart -- Corsair Memory continues to excel and release new flash products. Corsair's latest additions to their Flash Voyager GT family are 16GB and 32GB editions. At hand today we are looking at the Corsair Flash Voyager 16GB USB 2.0 flash drive.

The Corsair TX650W PSU arrived Technic3D. See you in the following Review from Technic3D the next PSU Review with a high efficiency and a good price. Make the Ultra-quiet 120mm double ball-bearing fan, 8 Serial ATA connectors, 2x PCI-e 8-Pin and extra long cables support this PSU better than the 550W PSU?
