Post your Pics of Ram Cooling

Wow man that's tight. Too bad one has absolutely NO use for 40MM fans when you
have 2x120MM front intake @ 95CFM each and the airflow is paralell to the dimms. :D

So thats my ram cooling. Plus the 7700CU's flow that lands conviniently over
the second dimm if I had one in. (it walls 47MHz short of the other stick)

Here is my system :D

I won't bother posting mine, I'll just explain it, I have a 80mm fan cut into my window which blows right over the ram, just the right distance for some nice cooling, (actually, I have 3 80 mm fans cut into it, they go right over the vid card/cpu/ram) nice clean look

Well, the airflow of a fan is not lineal but radial :P. What I mean is that the deadspot (below the motor) grows and grows and if the memories are belw that point they´ll get very low cfm´s.

I totally agree, but I think you maybe used the incorrect term? Radial is like radial fans, who has NO deadspot :) (eg. the Coolermaster Aero7 fan :))

I don't know the correct term for this either, but it's more like 'diffusal' or something me thinks :toast:

while true, I have 3 in a line, not just 1, so they overlap which covers the whole board on one half basically. also, when the flow hits the board, it doesn't just stay in the spot it hits, it spreads, There's no way cfm's can not get to the ram. You don't need to move alot of air, u just need to move air. which is why they recommended at least a low cfm fan in the first place. You just have to strategically place the fans.

It's axial and radial ;)

thats my fan cooler, created from a coat hanger, as mentioned in the earlier posts...

i added the fan controler for the SF2 after i fixed some solder joints, and i took and wrapped it around the fan and have it so the pot is sticking straight up for easy access when inside of case... increased airflow for those hot days :p:

Here's mine :) coathanger rules! :D

Haha thanks man, I can't believe how simple this is...and it works so well....if you are scared of the blank metal just cover it in tape (pic 4)

excuse the blurry phonecam pic :)

Mine is similar with 92mm fan :)

After having two fans rigged up with zip ties, I changed to just one fan with the zalman bracket attached at the top. Looks a little better :D

here the result with my cooling ... Higher than without it about 1x MHz...

On my sticks I don`t have any heatsink.
Only fan on 7v. It`s enough even i do 3,8v on bh6

I can see the paperclip, but no coolermaster heatsinks...

With coolermaster, I think about this, but on your pic it seems like you've just packed your ram in with some plastic :D

I'm just using an 120mm fan that is blowing fromnthe right side of the board, over the mem voltage heatsink, and over the mem.. Keeps the heatsink from burning my fingers, and keep the mem nice and cold :)

how did you attached bracket there ? with what

Here's mine. Simple, held in place by 3M double sided tape.
