Corsair Dominator Platinum 1866 C9 vs C10. What's the difference beside CL???

Trojans · Jun 27, 2013

I've seen both and curious about the difference if there's any.

Will I see a huge difference if I jump to 2133 from 1866.

Thanks

There is the very small difference performances between CL and CL10. If you use the 2133MHz, then 1) If you have intel PC, the different is small too. 2) For AMD's Trinity PC the you have maybe about 6% difference between 2133 and 1866 for games/applications.

It will also depend on the sticks you get, frequency is just part of the equation...performance is a combination of frequency and CL so if you look at 1866/CL9 vs 2133/CL10 - performance wise they will be about the same with a slight nod to 2133 for wider bandwidth (it processes more MB per second than 1866)....on the other hand a 1866/9 vs a 2133/11 or 12, the 1866 will perform better as it takes longer for the 2133 to do a process.....or 1866/10 is much less performance wise than a 2133/9 set.....
