Guys, I've got the rig in my signature setup as described in this thread

http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=479004

Problem is my memory gets up to 57C when I CounterStrike, the water loop stays at about 35C max though. I am attributing this high mem temp to poor case air flow. This case is huge, but I don't want to sacrifice the quietness I have right now. So, my question is, what is a quiet 120mm case fan that is effective? I have Vantec Stealths on the radiator, and they seem to be working ok, cause 35C is not too shabby. I just need better inlet/outlet case fans for the mem and mobo.
 
I would say the same as ctrl_alt_del_, adding those will be a restriction and a mixed metal loop = corrosion. Even a low rpm 80mm or 92mm fan blowing air on your ram will help lower the temps if you do not have room for a 120mm fan.
