Coming off the back of testing Corsair’s awesome XMS4400 memory I now have to make a deliberate attempt not to be too harsh here. I can’t really complain that this memory doesn’t overclock very well because at 250MHz (500MHz DDR) it’s already a long way beyond conventional memory. As a responsible reviewer I should only complain when it falls short of its claims, not when it doesn’t exceed them by enough to please me. Yes, the activity lights are a gimmick, as are illuminated cooling fans, case windows and UV reactive motherboard fixtures, but that doesn’t mean we’re not allowed to want them. Having said that if you don’t have a side window in your case and don’t plan on getting one any time soon, there’s little point in paying extra for memory that lights up in the first place. The Pro series memory is big, fast and unique and has opened up yet another market for Corsair, and for that the company should be applauded. I just get the feeling that you’re sacrificing a little bit of “go” in exchange for the show. Read full review
