    Corsair Dominator or G.Skill Ripjaw

    I have 4GB of Dominator 1600, and 4GB of G.Skill Ripjaw 1600, not sure which to use in my main rig and which to use in my HTPC.

    Anybody have any views on it ?

    Dominators in your main rig as there a bit more boutique perhaps ?
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    Performance between RAM with the same speed and latencies is almost exactly the same so just pick whichever you want as it won't make much of a difference haha. Or if your HTPC has low airflow then use the ones with better cooling in it to ensure they don't overheat but IIRC Dominators and Ripjaws both have similar heatsink designs but I guess Dominators are taller and cover more.
