Corsair Factory Tour

We spoke to Joe James, Marketing Director at Corsair, and asked him to give us the low-down on the factory.

\"We were honoured to have you tour our headquarters and factory last week,\" Joe told us. \"As the world\'s leading manufacturer of high performance memory modules, Corsair is very tuned in to the latest manufacturing technology to ensure the highest possible levels of quality and reliability in our products.\"

I was incredibly impressed with the amount of testing that Corsair did on its memory, right down to picking the most common enthusiast-grade boards to test their high end modules on. Joe emphasised that \"Corsair uses sophisticated high-speed test equipment as well as the latest enthusiast motherboards to test our fastest modules at their rated specs. The company employs proprietary technology to build high density stacked server modules and to manufacture our PRO series modules.\"

So there you have it. Seeing thousands of gigabytes of memory just lying around in boxes is a pretty humbling experience for anyone that\'s ever scrimped to pinch a 256MB upgrade, but it sure looks cool as hell.
