Choosing RAM....

I am trying to choose some good overclocking RAM, preferably something that will give me the best performance at around 3.2 volts, I would go Winbond UTT with OCZ VX or something but I don't think 3.2 is enough for them, they kinda like 3.4....so maybe I am limited to TCCD, just that it doesn't respond that well to voltage as BH-5.....suggestions are appreciated....

TCCD will clock faster while UTT will perform much better (due to tighter timings). The drawback of UTT is the insane voltage (and the heat generated), so you might have to have a fan (or some kind of airflow) pointed at the ram. Another thing, though I'm not too sure about this, is that UTT ram might overheat if the dimm sockets are too close together.

Anybody have any suggestions for non heat-spreaded RAM, I kinda liek to put my own individual heatsinks on each one...The only ones I see that don't are G-skill, but I don't know about their quality....

Heh, you would be surprised, yeah I think I am gonna do that, since it provides a lot more cooling power.....I am gonna have fans on it anyway, so maybe I will do UTT and a voltmod....sounds yummy...
