Corsair Dropping the High End X79 Memory Ball?

[TheAggie]

I've just gotta ask, does anyone else think Corsair is dropping the ball on High End memory? I've had all the components for my X79 build for at least two weeks now, which are now teasing me, and yet I can't find any of the much reviewed Corsair Dominator GT modules ANYWHERE! I don't think it's a demand issue... I think it's a supply issue, and I'm starting to think that it's not a supply issue but a production one. Based on my daily searches and investigation, it feels like NOBODY is getting shipments from Corsair of the CMT16GX3M4X2133C9 kit... Did something happen that caused Corsair to pull these modules from the market? Corsair seems pretty tight lipped over this if that is the case. All I really want to know is when I can expect to have a set of CMT16GX3M4X2133C9 modules in my hands, because I'm really starting to loose my patience!

When I posted this response the 16gb kit was in stock at the following link. Might still be available when you see it. ???

just a hunch but with corsair into much more than memory these days and with memory so cheap maybe it's a bit of why bother from corsair?

I've been searching daily and saw that they appeared to have it yesterday. Placed an order and was hopeful, but then I was contacted and told that they don't actually have any in stock and that they don't know when they would be getting any. They were just adding the item to their site, so I had him cancel the order.

Thanks for the tip though

Oh well....I didn't try to order them just saw they looked like they were in stock.

Looking at Corsairs site even they won't add to the cart. So I tend to believe they are a new product? Moving very quickly? Or they are just low production due to the price premium over other DDR3 sets for us mere mortals
