Move over Corsair DOMINATOR, OCZ Technology unveils its FlexXLC

OCZ Technology today announced its new PC2-9200 FlexXLC memory modules. The new PC2-9200 FlexXLC memory modules feature a new unique solution. The new FlexXLC cooling solution one up’s Corsair’s previously announced DOMINATOR memory modules by offering users the flexibility of passive or water cooling. This is accomplished by using a hybrid copper and aluminum design with an optimized fin array and copper liquid injection system.

While passive cooling is perfectly fine for achieving the rated PC2-9200 speeds of the modules, OCZ claims: Water-cooling is more efficient than air cooling, yet standard memory kits are usually not available in off-the-shelf water-cooled configurations," commented Dr. Michael Schuette, VP of Technology Development at OCZ Technology Group. "The new OCZ FlexXLC series—featuring an exciting, novel hybrid water and air cooler based on OCZ’s embedded copper liquid injection system—pushes thermal management of memory modules one step further to keep up with the ever-increasing frequency demands. Moreover, the FlexXLC modules seamlessly co-migrate with any system upgrade to liquid cooling.

Additional features of the OCZ PC2-9200 FlexXLC modules include an eight-layer PCB. The eight-layer PCB features thermally conductive power and ground planes to help heat transfer and reduce crosstalk. The signal integrity is also improved with the thermally conductive power and ground planes.

OCZ PC2-9200 FlexXLC modules are available in 2x1GB kits and feature a lifetime warranty. Availability is expected by the end of the week from online retailers. Pricing is unknown at the moment. However expect the OCZ PC2-9200 FlexXLC modules to be priced similarly to Corsair’s DOMINATOR memory modules.

I've got the PR in my inbox.

I don't need watercooling for my RAM, thanks.

2014 is going to be a good year. More content, more streamlining. Be a part of history!

It would still be fun to give a try, that is if I had a system that used DDR2...............Wink Normally, even with extremely high OC'd ram, air cooling works fine.........Smile

That is rediculous. If it was at least clear so that it would be good for case modders, that would be one thing, but as it is, that cooling system is useless...

Its not who a person is in the inside, but what he does that defines him.

I myself don't see any real benifits to water cooling system ram unless you have no airflow in your case at all, then you're going to end up frying more than just your system ram. But there are a lot of poeple that do water cool their system ram for various reasons, silence is the main one. There are several companies that already make water blocks for system ram, so I really don't see the reason why OCZ is do it one their retail products, matbe to get a few extra sales to water cooling folks that have a fear of removing their ram heat spreaders maybe.

With watercooling it is suppose to be able to reach 1200MHz at 2.1V

I bet without it, it could reach that as well.

Probably and I also think WC'ing on RAM is unecessary if you have an adequate amount of air flow in a case.
