What do u mean by ram coolers, heat spreaders?

Heat spreaders really don't do anything effectively, lol... More for looks than anything else.

 

[limqareb]

yes like heatsink on the ram, they have a thermal pad , thats why

I reckon I ould hook me up a good one but I can't be bothered!!

 

[limqareb]

thanks for the help both of them look cool but does ram heat up that much, well mine is overvolted +0.2v

 

[Dav0s]

in that case no lol. most ram will only start to get drastically hot at about 3.2v or above (when voltage switches to 5v rail which is only really possibly in dfi mobos)
