SHOULD I GET MEM HEAT SPREADERS?

[SuPrEIVIE]

I am about to purchase PC3700 Buffalo ram since many are saying they are BH-5 chips i will use a 2.4c with max3 board...question is should i get heatspreaders for this memory? and where do they sell good heatspreaders?

You don't need it... its only for looks. So if you have a window... go get it if you want. I believe putting heatspreaders on sticks that don't have them will void your warranty as well.

so you are saying they will have no affect on reducing heat on the mem?

It will slightly reduce operating temps... but whether it will give you a higher overclock is doubtful if that's what you're planning to do.
