Test Rig
For our tests, we used our Test Rig which consists of an Asus Strix Z790-E Gaming WiFi motherboard, along with an Intel Core i9-14900K and a GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER graphics card.
* ALL tests are conducted at specified default speeds and settings.

Installation
There were no issues at all during the installation. Just make sure you align the notch on the modules to the motherboard’s DIMM slots properly. And also, remember to install the memory on to DIMM slot A2 and B2 to enable quad channel mode. Please refer to your motherboard manual for more information.
BIOS Setup
To set up the ram to run at DDR5-7200 speeds, we enabled XMP 3.0 Profiles. Just select the XMP Profile 1 and the BIOS and “Save” and that’s it! No more messing around with voltages or memory timings. All other settings in the BIOS were left untouched on AUTO.
CPU-Z and SPD Information
As you can see from the CPU-Z screenshot, the ram supports XMP 3.0 only. The DRAM frequency is running at 3600 MHz which gives you the default speed of DDR5-7200.
The other thing you’ll notice is that the ram is now running in Quad channel mode (4 x 32-bit). Here’s a quick reason why … DDR5 gives you two 32-bit wide (40-bit wide, with ECC) channels per stick, which means that you get a quad-channel configuration when running two DIMMs.
AIDA64 Memory Information
The SPD information on AIDA64 shows that the Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5-7200 32GB memory kits uses memory chips produced by SK Hynix. CAS latency is reported at 34-44-44-96 operating on a voltage of 1.45V.
Full Load Temperatures
Load temps reached a high 51-52 degrees Celsius. It looks pretty normal, and it’s what we expected for memory modules running at DDR5-7200 speeds.
