active ram cooling

[KayKay]

what is a good choice for active cooling ram cooling? i was thinking of mounting a case fan behind where the DVD-ROM drives are in my case

I also got my thermalright XP-90 today, i noticed that the fan blows of over my ram on dfi nf4 motherboard. is that sufficient for ram cooling, especially on high volts overclocking?

Just place a fan over top of your RAM. If the XP-90's fan already blows over it then that should be sufficient.

XP-90 will work but XP-120 works even nicer especially cuz I have ram in Slot 1 too.

I've also wondered this, so how do you sugest that one mount a fan over the RAM sticks?

You could use rubber bands

zip tie it to your drive bay cage. (personally, unless your pushing 3.0v+, i don't think this is neccessary.)

im looking to do 3.3-3.4 V max

i cant seem to find out how much is "enough" cooling for ram to run 24/7 at this voltage

With that much voltage, you'll need some good airflow acoss the sticks.

Question: What's up with the Ultra ad in you sig?

it was a good psu, it has never let me down, its running in my brothers comp right now

Ahh, I see.

Well, I guess not ALL of them blow up.

QFT. The ones that don't blow up fry your MoBo in about a month
