Default Thermal sensor on my ram

I have a multi function pannel that has many functions ^_^ and has three temp sensors. I was wondering, if I used electrical tape to tape them on to a chip on each stick of ram if that would work? Would each chip be the same temperature on the whole stick?

Yes it would work, the chips will be the same temperature as long as there isnt something else really close that would be effecting the temps of single chips. If the heatsink is RIGHT beside say 3 of the chips, those ones will be hotter.

People do this all the time, you should also add some active cooling to that ram, it'll help with your overclocking and stability.

Cooling your ram is usually pointless, unless its a hardcore phasechange ddr600 system... I know a lot of people disagree with this.. but I've worked with lots of ram, and very few of them even get warm to the touch, even when overclocked.

Hmm.. recommend some good ram sinks?

This isnt true man. TCCD doesnt get as hot but when it gets 2.8-2.9 volts it starts to get warm. Cooling the ram really does help with stability, just try it and see for yourself.

For ramsinks, for TCCD it'll be fine without them, just add a 80mm fan on top and they'll drop a lot in temps, otherwise you can just get some copper heatspreaders off frozencpu. The copper heatspreaders are really good too. If you use those then the fan isnt as important.
