Anyone set up a push-pull wind tunnel for your RAM sticks ?
I have a 6GB DDR3 Corsair Dominator (3 X 2gb) installed withouth the RAM fan ... just the "high-rise" heat spreaders.
I'd like to cool my mem (all runs great & without issue, but I want it to continue that way) but I have a TRUE to install on my i7 920, once I lap it. I'll be installing this with a push-pull (2 X 120mm fans) which will leave about ... well .... nothing as far as space to attach some type of RAM fan on top of the RAM heat spreaders.
What I'm thinking about, is a setup like this ... (crappy pic below)
... Where the RAM will be enclosed in a wind tunnel from end to end, pull from the "bottom" end & exhaust at the top of the case (Antec 1200). I've not seen a setup like this done & I wonder if there's a reason for that ... lol ... like maybe it looks good on paper, but ....
Think this would be an efficient solve for cooling my RAM sticks across the length of the heat spreaders ??
