Does these blow or suck air ?
Does these blow or suck air ?
They move air towards the memory modules.
So what's the latest word on these? I was thinking of picking one up and/or an Antec Spot Cool. I'm going to be installing a G.Skill PC8000 4GB kit in my IP35-E tonight in the quest for 4GHz+ on my E8400. I also run an 8800 GT. Anyone know if there will be clearance problems? Should I just go for the Spot Cool and angle it over both RAM/NB HS? I'd like to do both for maximum cooling if possible.
i did not read the full thread so ... dont know about other opinios
here some shots of my setup .. ..
it is Asus Maximus Extreme Mobo and as you see on my pic.'s, there is very little space between gfx card's componets what are soldered on it's pcb
and ram cooler's lower mounting clip - it is approx 2 ~3 millimeters only !!
just remenber that clips are also metallic as its frame and in case of falied mounting or what ever if it got loose and may attach the cards pcb/devices and 'short' the electric circuit .. shortly just may blow your card or following .. ) maibe have to use some isolating material or something to secure the clearance there !
if using the topmost PCI-E slot there, i cannot use the thumb screw, just used an other (normal screw) included in box for mounting lower clip ( did it on the table .. cooler device out of the case) and finally tighten it inside with upper thumbscrew .. also had to pull out the gfx card, and hdd rack, there is also a lil' issue with main power connector had to use some force to bend away these wires to make the cooler fit properly ..
so far it is OK but actually these to 2 fans(60mm) are a lil' audible on stock speeds ( ~3400rpm ) so i just used fan controlling options via asus bios to take down the rpm's ~ someth. at 70% or so, now @~2600~2800 it is normal. Led's are quite bright but i don't care about them i mostly run mi rig with side panels closed
i don't have any sensors on rams, but was runnunig my G.Skill F3-10600CL8D-2GBH (DDR3-1333 PC3-10600@ quite HOT on 1600(DDR3-@800) 1.85v or even higher speed and voltage - but after added this cooler - they feel 'tepid' lukewarm .. if touching with fingers

what thickness are the stock fans so I can replace em.

Looking at other 60MM fans you can buy, my guess it 60x10MM.
The only thing I don't like about this RAM cooler is it looks restrictive.
You are correct. I am also getting new fans for my OCZ RAM cooler because I am trying to get of all lights possible lol...cannot sleep.Looking at other 60MM fans you can buy, my guess it 60x10MM

these delta 60mm low speed fans would fit.
