The RAM in my second computer is getting really hot. Anyone have suggestions on how to cool it down? I believe that it is overclocked as well (An old friend of mine build the tower), so maybe underclocking it a bit would be beneficial?

Input is appreciated, thanks in advance :D

Just to keep it simple... How about additional fan (120x120mm, silent one) blowing some air into RAM blocks?

The side fan is just a little teeny one (60mm?). I might be able to put another fan on the top of the case though.

I've got corsair ram with the cooling fins - very handy

I have seen stick on ram cooling _fins_ (not fans) that might help

Here's a link to a UK supplier, check out the first two items:
