Thanks for the opinions and thanks for offering to let me try it SpcCdr but luckily my friend has one so I will borrow it off of him within the next few days and let everyone know whether it fits or not.

Verdict is in: it doesn't fit. The one side hits the front of my zalman cpu fan and the other end doesn't fit because of the psu connector.

That stinks..

I came SO close to ordering the kit they have on there with the 4gb set of OCZ Platinum + that for a very reasonable price ($5-10 over the ram alone) but decided against and just ordered some more Corsair DHX...

Now I wonder if this will fit over my Corsair DHX or not...

I like blue LEDs, i could always use more
