Performance
The performance is highly satisfactory and the modules lives up to the specifications and more, and if you increase the memory voltage you can push them quite a lot higher. The memories are specified to 1866C8 and our overclocking tests shows that it is possible to reach as high as DDR2100 at the same settings and even higher with looser timings. The water block is proportional for handling both Peltier and the modules. The additional performance the Peltier enables isn't great, but the lower temperatures could be more useful with a closed system.

Conclusion
Corsair has presented an innovative solution for cooling memories way below room temperature using water cooling and Peltier. The solution is flexible and can be used with a number of Corsair's new memory circuits and with everything from 2 to 6 modules. During our tests we haven't been able to register any kind of overwhelming improvements with the Peltier element, but then again it's not necessary to activate it, which is just another sign for flexibility. The memories have good margins for overclocking and responds well to higher voltages. From a larger perspective you realize that you only need water block for the processor and possibly graphics card for a water-cooled system. This system is also very easy to install without any major modifications needed. We have no information regarding the price, but we can't imagine it will be cheap.

Huh, da kommt Konkurrenz für OCZ mit einer Wasserkühlung der anderen Art. :D

Der Meinung bin ich nicht, da ich selbst wassergekühlte Ramspeicher besitze. Die Hitze, die die Flex erzeugt, lässt sich tadellos mit der Ramkühlung beiseite schaffen.

oder mit einem langsamdrehenden Lüfter.

Ich sehe den sinn auch nicht ganz, da der Ram davon nicht profitiert wenner kühler ist
