I need waterblocks for my memory to cool them to ~1C or so. Who makes waterblocks for RAM besides

Oh and this is for one 512mb stick of XMS3200C2 already clocked at 485ddr w/ 2.9V, but I want MORE. Processor is a 1.6A @2.92 182fsb 3:4 and the processor will go to at least 190.

I have the same stuff you do and it is OCd and le5t me take my case side off and se if its hot...and hey its about as hot as a pencil after bieng in my hand for the past 5 minuites doing calculus homework. you dont need cooling on ram dude...its a total waste of money IMHO. but if you really want it5 get an active memory coolnig kit from somne place that sells em, i think coolermaster sells em.

remember I am not cooling it 3 degrees with a fan. I am cooling it 40 degrees with a chiller system. This lower temp WILL theoretically help the OC. The lower you run an electrical application at the faster and easier the electrons will flow. That is why I want to do it now I just need the waterblocks to do it.

Make one using copper for thermal temp. transfer.

A couple of 1/2-1 inch copper strips attached to heatspreaders and touching the cpu waterblock should work.
Controlling the condensation is another matter

yeah I already know condensation sucks. I guess all I am left with is making my own. I have access to a CNC but no clue how to use it or where to get the copper stock. Anyone know where the best place to get copper stock is? I guess now is as good a time to learn as ever.

well the place that I linked has a very bad design, is overpriced, and has an aweful reputation.
