Default Best Memory/RAM/SYSTEM Cooling

Ok, well. I've decided that I am not going to even try and get all thoes expensive ram cooling solutions. check this out, I was really bored, and just staring at my 44c temps. And this was my solution.

It lowed my temps 4C, but my case door is on, so no matter what, (unless I drill a hole in my acrylic) I can't really get any lower temps w/o taking the case door off. Becuase I can get about 34C temps if I get a fan blowing in my case w/ the door off.

If you're really bored and have some spare time, check out the "sleeving" sticky on this website. It'd really jazz up the appearance of your case. If you care,that is.

Eh... that probably wouldn't work, becuase the air would stop before getting to the middle of the ram fan, and how I have it now is gonna work very well, becuase over the weekend (hopefully) i'll have the parts that I'm waiting for, and i'll be putting a blowhole thru the top.
