Well to say the least I'm into overclocking and I'm always testing the limits of my ram. I just bought a couple of sticks of Crucial Anniversary DDR2 and want to put it through the paces. these have the heat spreaders and I've placed a temp sensor just under one to see how hot they get. I do have 2 fans on them but that doesn't always mean safe. So far I've hit up to 41C with an oc of DDR2-1140 at 2.4v 5-5-5-15 CR2 and that was during memtest which proved to be stable for a pass and 1/2 before i just stopped it. I'm happy with the oc i'm getting out of a $100 kit but i'm concerned with my temps - I have no thoughts about running them 24/7 with those clocks but would like to know if I'm about to totally burn them out.

Any thoughts on DDR2 temps would be great.
