CORSAIR Launches Dominator Platinum RGB DDR4 Memory

Fremont, CA, February 21st, 2019 – CORSAIR®, a world leader in PC gaming peripherals and enthusiast components, today announced the launch of DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB DDR4 Memory, raising the bar once again for premium, world-class DRAM. DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB delivers the high performance that custom PC enthusiasts demand for their cutting-edge systems, while renewing the celebrated and iconic design of DOMINATOR PLATINUM. A fully updated aluminum heatspreader, hand-sorted memory chips, frequencies up to a record-setting 4,800MHz, and individually addressable RGB lighting – a first for a DOMINATOR PLATINUM module – combine to create DDR4 memory that’s in a class of its own.

Each module of DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB represents the pinnacle of premium craftsmanship, starting with a custom 10-layer PCB that guarantees signal quality and stability. Every memory chip is hand-sorted and tightly screened to ensure tight response times and high-frequency performance, with kits available from 3,000MHz to an incredible 4,800MHz, with ample headroom for overclocking. DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB stays cool even under extreme stress thanks to CORSAIR’s patented Dual-Path DHX cooling technology, which cools the module through both the anodized aluminum heatspreader and copper planes embedded directly into the PCB.

A die-cast zinc-alloy top bar houses DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB’s 12 ultra-bright CAPELLIX RGB LEDs, the first time CORSAIR has used this all-new LED mounting method. At just 0.2mm³, CAPELLIX LEDs improve upon conventional LEDs in almost every measurable way, able to shine brighter and last longer, while using less power with higher energy efficiency. This results in more vivid, stunning lighting than with any other RGB memory currently available, without impacting performance or thermals thanks to their greatly reduced power consumption.

CORSAIR iCUE software enables powerful control and customization over DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB. Make sure your memory is running at its full potential with real-time system monitoring that tracks temperature and frequency. iCUE’s dynamic RGB lighting customization lets you choose from dozens of pre-set lighting profiles, or create your own patterns and effects with complete control over each individual LED. iCUE can also synchronize lighting across all of your iCUE-compatible devices for truly intricate system-wide lighting effects.

DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB is available in a wide array of capacities and frequencies and sold in kits of two, four, and eight modules. DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB also becomes the fastest air-cooled production memory kit available today with the 4,800MHz, 2 x 8GB kit, running on ASUS Z390 Maximus XI GENE and Z390 Maximus XI Apex motherboards and an Intel® Core i5 8600k CPU.

For PC building enthusiasts who demand both uncompromising performance and gorgeous visuals to complement the look of their system, DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB is strictly in a class of its own.

Availability, Warranty and Pricing

CORSAIR DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB DDR4 Memory is available immediately from the CORSAIR worldwide network of authorized retailers and distributors, as well as direct from the CORSAIR webstore. Some select SKUs of CORSAIR DOMINATOR PLATINUM RGB DDR4 Memory are exclusive to the CORSAIR webstore.

Tech Support: Error Unknown Release Date Confirmed

Haarlem, The Netherlands – February 19th, 2019 – Indie game publisher Iceberg Interactive and developer Dragon Slumber have officially announced that Tech Support: Error Unknown will be launching for PC, Mac, and Linux on February 27th, 2019 on Steam and major digital retailers. The news is supported with the reveal of a trailer and key art, which highlight the many choices you’ll be forced to make during the game’s branching narrative.

The award-winning adventure (Best Indie Pitch, MIGS18) casts players as new employees of the IT department of Quasar Telecommunications, a multinational-juggernaut of a corporation. Players soon discover, though, that Quasar isn’t all the news media makes it out to be. Tech Support: Error Unknown follows the long-running, cyber-tug-of-war between Quasar and Tech Support’s hacker-faction, Indigo. Players can choose an alliance with the IT group as one of many available paths to pursue.

Using the Spectrum OS virtual desktop interface, you’ll chat with customers and colleagues through an organic, procedural dialogue system, solving puzzles and making discoveries to inform decisions that radically affect the narrative’s outcome. Will you remain loyal to your employment overlords, or sabotage them from within? Whatever you story – Every choice matters.

“The reception for the game thus far has completely blown me away, and I couldn’t be more excited to get the full version in player’s hands. Although I can’t condone Indigo’s vigilantism, I do believe that these allegations against Quasar should be reviewed under the due process of the law,” cheekily says Dragon Slumber’s Kevin Giguère.

Eager applicants can try a free demo on Steam, Gamejolt or Itch.io for PC, Mac and Linux, join the Launch Day Live Stream through the Steam store page, and wishlist the game to be notified as soon as the full version of Tech Support: Error Unknown is made available on February 27th 2019.

  • Deep and challenging turn-based combat with permadeath
