Functional Testing

After a machine tests the modules, they go to a real-world test, called functional testing. In this test the modules are installed on motherboards and then tested. Here is one of the major differences between Corsair’s old factory and the new one. They developed a new system. Instead of heaving one keyboard, one mouse and one video monitor connected to each motherboard, they are using a KVM switch, which allows several computers to use the same keyboard, mouse and video monitor.

Figure 10: A closer look on the new Corsair functional testing pod, which is more organized.

Corsair uses RSTPro 2 board from Ultra-X to test their memories. This board built-in software starts testing the memory automatically when you turn on the system, so the systems don’t need a hard disk drive to work.
