Just saw those Thermaltake heatsinks for DDR RAM. Are they effective? My 512M stick (samsung) runs REALLY hot, even at default speed (333MHz). TT also has active cooling solutions, bur that seems a little too much (not to mention the extra noise).
From what I've seen, it can get you a mere 5 mhz higher. I think you should invest your money elsewhere if you want better performance, like another case fan.
Heats sinks on the ram chips would be much better. I cut and glued aluminum sheets to my SDRAM memory and it did help me overclock a bit higher by reducing the heat on the chips. Also put a case fan blowing towards the DIMM slots to cool the memory.
