Has anyone installed this in an ASUS X79-DELUXE with Corsair Dominator memory? Any problem with the heatpipes clearing anything on the MB?

It will work with the motherboard but according to their compatibility page, the memory will not fit with the heatpipes on them. You can see the compatible memory here: http://www.noctua.at/main.php?show=compatibility_ram_gen&products;_id=34

Don't know. Seems okay, If you can choose, better use some smaller memory. If you like, you can choose cooler master V8 GTS. This fan I can be sure you will perfectly install any high memory. I help one of my friends build that fan. That has much better looking-with red led light. And that only cost you 10 bucks more. If I can choose again, I will choose that fan instead of D14. Well, these two fans have same cooling ability, both are very good and BIG(size). When you have a windowed computer case, you may expect great looking led light. Hope this can help you. :)

I bought this but abandoned this approach and instead went with the 'radiator' type. I bought a double(fan)size radiator and single(fan)size radiator. The single simply screwed to back where a fan would go. The double didn't fit - but had a tower and just left the radiator 'loose' n the case - and its works fine. These devices only require a small footprint over the CPU and are quiet.

That is an old problem that has been fixed. I bought this PSU about 6 months ago and have a Gigabyte GA-X79-UP4 and I've never had a problem. The PSU has been working perfectly.

I own this ram it is in a AsRock extreme9 motherboard. This ram will work in Intel motherboard with an Intel x79 chip set. The X79 motherboard will have the memory controller on the cpu. The ram will work in other motherboards as well you might try going over to the Corsair web site and running their motherboard/memory configurator that way you can be sure that the ram that you buy is the one that works with your board.

Did you press f2 on restart? Not on initial start but bring it up then do a restart. I know that sounds weird but that is how I got my HE to see the 2GB memory. Hit the f2 key multiple times to get to the BIOS screen. When I installed the 667 mhz memory on my HE the vids were choppy, I replaced it with an 800 mhz and the problem is gone. Maybe I got a bad module, who knows?

I have finally been able to install the 2GB RAM with my ASUS 1000HE turning on but I have the same problem with the system not showing the added RAM.Nothing happens when I pressF2 as you did.Can someone please advise me? I'd really be grateful.

I bought the Corsair Vengeance Blue standard profile 8GB two stick kit and it works fine even after pushing the speed up. I'm using the stock Intel cooler in a case with lots of room, so had no reason to get the low profile version. My first Gigabyte board had a bad memory channel (only the two slots furthest from the CPU worked), but Amazon replaced it quickly.

I could not answer that question. I did a build and new my motherboard. With that knowledge I consulted Asus's QVL (Qualified Vendor Lists) for my memory choice. I am by no means an expert of computer hardware. Thank you for asking. I choose this memory of the choices because of the ability to connect with the Corsair Link system, its cooling features and benefits, and matched pairing.

if you are asking what type of memory this mb use,.. you can go to the asus website and get to this model and you will find a list there of the recommended memory types that had been tested by asus. It is a ddr 3 memory type ,but for the speeds and compatibility list refer to the asus website page for this specific motherboard. Different 2011 X79 asus models will accept different ddr3 speeds so you have to check which ones applies for this model.

Running a Asus MB with w/16gb & 4770k chip. Experimented with running the ram at various speeds. No problems with underclocking the ram. No freezes at slower speeds. Best Wishes-Rick

When I tried to install this RAM in my ASUS 1015PED, it refused to get to the BIOS screen. I seated it correctly, but it simply didn't boot when I had this particular 2GB stick. Apparently it isn't compatible?

The ASUS web site memory compatibility chart does not list the Corsair Dominator Platinum, but they do list the Corsair Vengeance. See http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1155/P8B75-M/P8B75-M-1866-2400DIMM-QVL.pdf The Corsair web site memory finder does not list the ASUS P8B75-M mother board. See http://www.corsair.com/en/memory-finder The memory specs for your MB are: 4 x DIMM, Max. 32GB, DDR3 MHz Non-ECC, Un-buffered Memory, Dual Channel Memory Architecture. The ASUS site lists a Corsair DDR3 8GB (2 sticks @ 4GB) Vengeance CMZ8GX3M2A1866C9 with a timing and latency of 9-10-9-27 (9) and a voltage of 1.5 as being compatible with your MB. You should be able to use any memory pairs with the same voltage, timing and latency. So it looks like the Corsair Dominator Platinum 16 GB CMD16GX3M2A1899C9 (2 sticks of 8GB) and the 8 GB CMD8GX3M2A1866C9 (2 sticks of 4GB) will work. See http://www.corsair.com/en-us/memory/dominator-platinum?memoryconfiguration=Dual%20Channel|&testedlatency=9-10-9-27| You can double up on the 16 and get 32GB (4 sticks of 8GB) of mix pairs of 16 and 8 for 24GB (2 sticks of 8 plus 2 sticks of 4). Make sure the 8GB sticks are in matching color slots and the 4GB sticks are in the other matching color slots if you go with unequal memory sticks.

Hi again, I checked ASUS web site after reading a post about problems with 4 gig sticks. There is a bios update to address memory compatibility issues and also a USB issue.Dan

Will it work? Yes. Perfectly fine? No. Why will it work? Because of Asrock's page for that motherboard which says Supports FSB1333/1066/800/533 MHz CPUs Supports Dual Channel DDR3 1333(OC) . Now for the not so perfect. First lets cover OC. I don't know your level of experience so I I have to cover the basics too. OC stands for over-clock. The overclock of those memory modules is done in your BIOS(setup) when you first turn on the computer . You can navigate there with Delete(usually) or F2. They will otherwise run @ 1066MHz because the Amazon page says F3-10666CL9D-8GBRL. It's a simple variable change in your BIOS. Nothing challenging. Will you get the full 8GB? Absolutely not. A 32bit Win 7 can handle a maximum of about 3.5GB but when I used these babies in my beast of a computer, BEFORE I upgraded to a 64bit OS my computer could only utilize 2GB. Your experience will vary, 8GB for for almost $80??? I spent under $60. You can upgrade to a more modern 64bit OS and the computer will automatically use the rest of the ram but you may need to adjust your memory speeds again after you upgrade or install to a more appropriate version. There are only 2 DIMM slots so no worries with installation issues.

I have the same motherboard you do, but I upgraded my cpu to the 3770k. I used this Corsair Dominator Platinum RAM, and I use the GeForce GTX 670 OC. I don't have any stability problems. Games never crash on me. Other memory would say that it was rated at a high speed, and I'd set it to XMP and it would let me, but on reboot, ASUS would give me a warning message that the overclocking failed. This is the only memory that actually runs stably for me at the higher speeds. That's why I was happy with paying a bit more for it. I'm actually toying with the idea of getting another pair to make it 16gigs. It runs great on that awesome motherboard. I have the same motherboard you do, but I upgraded my cpu to the 3770k.

From Asus "-Memory module with memory frequency higher than 2133 MHz and its corresponding timing or the loaded XMP Profile is not the JEDEC memory standard. The stability and compatibility of these memory modules depend on the CPU's capabilities and other installed devices" This applies to your board only, the Corsair 2133 Sku# Approved for your board are:CORSAIR CMT4GX3M2A2133C9(XMP) 4GB ( 2x 2GB ) CORSAIR CMT4GX3M2B2133C9(Ver7.1)(XMP) 4GB ( 2x 2GB ) CORSAIR CMT4GX3M2B2133C9(XMP) 4GB ( 2x 2GB ) Remember to take advantake of the DDR3 you have to populate all the slots with the exact same memory, or the timing will be off.

I do not have experience with this memory. It is not on Asus compatibility list for the motherboard, but http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-memory-cmy16gx3m2a2400c11r suggests others have used it successfully. Crucial's website suggests http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/z9pe-d8-ws/CT3472783 for this motherboard. The manual suggests the motherboard can be set to accept this memory speed.

I built a system about a year ago using the P9X79 paired with the I7 3820 and 16GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600 MHz memory and it's been a great combination. I use my system for programming and data processing and it's been very fast and reliable. I don't think I've ever had a single freeze up and I leave it up and running all the time.
