Another day, another awesome computing component we can’t get our hands on. The latest item in limited supply is Corsair’s Dominator Platinum RGB – a powerful new DDR5 RAM kit that will bring impressive processing speeds to any rig it’s incorporated into.
Corsair’s Dominator Platinum 32GB DDR5 RAM kit comes as a pair of 16GB sticks which can be bought with a max clock speed of 6.2GHz. For comparison, the 32GB DDR4 Dominator Platinum kit relied on four 8GB sticks and could only be bought at a maximum clock speed of 4GHz; even in its early days DDR5 is already helping to produce some of the best RAM options for 2021.
Given that we’ve seen this same situation play out across the industry for over a year and a half with other components, it’s impossible to say when stock counts will improve. If you’re hoping to get your hands on a DDR5 RAM kit we'd advise you to follow stock alerts as closely as you can, and don't buy a component at reseller prices unless you're absolutely desperate and are sure the seller is genuine.
