I am looking into some RAM cooling and I would like your opinion on what to buy. I have two systems with the following memory :

1. Normal G-SKILL CL7 TRI-KIT 6GB
2. TRIDENT G-SKILL CL6 TRI-KIT 6GB


These go into a Gigabyte UD3R X58(CL7) and an Asus Rampage II Extreme X58 (CL6). Both have Noctua cooling so I would like to get something that fits on the memory banks without being obstructed by the CPU cooler.

I was thinking of these :

1. Geil EVO Cyclone
2. Corsair Dominator Triple Kit
3. Kingston HyperX
4. OCZ XTC Memory Airflow Rev 2.


Which ones should I get? Any suggestion is welcome even if it is not on that list.


Cheers,


Wish ...

I personally used the OCZ and the Corsair before and I think the OCZs lock on tighter.

The corsair dominator fans does not lock on to some memory very tight and I think it is louder too.

Have you thought of copper heatspreaders or removing one of the noctua fans?

Thank you both for the replies. The Noctuas are used North --South meaning no fans protrude towards the ram slots. Both RAM sets have stock passive cooling from G-SKILL on them. The TRIDENTs have these pointy tops for better heat dissipation. Will passive work on passive?
