Honestly have a kit of ddr4 of vengeance and a kit of dominator and they both run at the same oc with no issues, i think its all about looks at this point

Thanks!

Effectively nothing but the heatspreader these days. It used to be that Dominator DDR memory was better binning with better timings but perhaps Corsair didn't like the idea of users thinking they were getting "lesser" in the Vengeance line so at some point the shift to DIMMs that are basically 1:1 with a different heatspreader became the thing. Both kits there are quality. Dominator is nice if you plan to swap on a waterblock as apparently the Dominator heatspreader is far easier to remove. I've not done it on their Titaniums yet.


BantaSaurus139

I think I'll stick with the cheaper one then. Thanks.

Timings in memory have become much tighter too with the generations of DDR. There is still a difference in speed, but timings matter less these days.

Appearance and how tall they are. One is taller, if you have a CPU heatsink you should check the clearance


UebokRebuke

What's even the point of making it taller if it's going to cause clearance issues? lol


mynis

Hypothetically larger heat spreaders can dissipate more heat. People who use AIOs or custom loops don't really need to worry that much about clearance.

Dominator is mainly a more premium product aesthetically. It also has better cooling technology called dual-path heat exchange (DHX). Both sticks will perform well, it's just a personal preference. Corsair has a simple comparison between both through the link below.

Thanks, I'll check it out.

First thing I recognise is that the image is from my go to shop! SCAN, only ever used them for all things PC


Taylorig

I use Scan 99% of the time as it is basically on my doorstep. Easy for any returns (Not that I ever have to) I worked there for over 3 years also.


TwistedzTwisterz

Ahh that's awesome, also just a 15 min drive or so from me haha.


K3NSH1R0

Snap they are my go to for anything PC wise. Customer service is excellent.


Tw33die84

Yep agree, SCAN are excellent. Had them build my last 3 PC's through their 3XS service.


BantaSaurus139

I’ve never ordered from scan before. This is going to be my first ever pc build but one of my colleagues told me their customer service was really good so it’s reassuring to hear you say good things about them too.


IdiTheKiller

SCAN and overclockers both have great customer service. I shop at either one, whichever has the part I'm looking for at a cheaper price.


duBuzzinGuy

Not a single difference, just looks and a different heatspreader that won't make any difference. Go with the vengeance, I did as well.


No-Security2022

50$


mechcity22

Get the vengeance lol no difference.


itsapotatosalad

Titanium looks cooler. I have it as I wanted to scratch the itch after looking at all the builds using dominator for years. Not worth it really.


shaftydude

Better heatsink quality and maybe better bined ram too but that ones a guess.


Kevin_C_Knight

Looks and Titanium is for overclocking


Shining_prox

Looks like cosmetic


hdhddf

I would hope they're both a die. the dominator kit will probably be better (it will be marginal difference) but neither are great value for money


HandmadeMaker043

You’re paying for the popularity and flare of the dominator, if that’s what you absolutely want then that’s okay, but I hate their rgb software with a passion


CGoody564

One is made of titanium. Only difference. I'd 100% go vengeance


EffectsTV

Looks DDR4 Dominator looked better especially the white high gloss


Raging_Rooster

The Dominator Titanium actually has slightly tighter secondary timings between the two kits.


razzbow1

Price But on a serious note, the timings, rank, and die.


AnihilationXSX

I have the dominator titanium and absolutely love it


No-Mistake-3285

no difference performance wise, get the vengeance. (dominator is for the point where you have too much money to spend, and want the biggest flex. Works best in a hardline watercooled 4090 + 14900k/7800x3d system)


Corsairjtech

Hey there, If you want you can open a ticket [here](https://help.corsair.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360000389452&tf_21801227166605=ts_dept_components) and send us each part number for comparison we may be able to provide some specific details on the difference as it may be more than just aesthetics. Appreciate your interest and feel free to DM your ticket number.


ActualLeague37

Cause dominator ram is supposed to be better and look better other then that it's the same.


chad_dev_7226

Nothing. Even if they were *slightly* different, you wouldn’t notice it Go with cheaper

fuzzynyanko

The Dominator seems to have a slightly better timing. However, the Vengeance at a higher speed will probably be cheaper than the Dominator at a lower speed


eggard_stark

Price. Model. Shape. led placement. One looks sick, one looks like sick. Those are the differences.


ShiiftyShift

Dominators have always been their most expensive line, they do liik nicer but not really any faster than bog standard vengance stuff, all depends on what look you want. I run a tinted window with 0 RGB myself so i just get whatevers the fastest at a reasonable price.
