why would you need ram coolers.

 

[dakeebs]

i read in a couple of different forums tht the ram tends to run pretty hot....just wondering if i was covered in the coolin department w/ the fans

Ram runs hot at speeds its not intended for, those days are over, you will be fine.

cool, thanks for the quick replies

But.......

Some of the RAM with heat-spreaders LOOK cool.

But it's kinda hard to see when installed.

Sorta like putting a high-polished chrome valve in your toilet though. lol
