In felinusz's original thread over at OCF it was suggested slipping a piece of shrink wrap over the wire before bending it, in effect, insulating it to reduce the risks should it touch something. It is probably a worthwhile thing to do, considering how easy it would be to do. Electrical tape works, but the shrink wrap, or even some thin rubber tubing, gives it a little bit of a cleaner, more polished look.Originally Posted by hovo73
In that case I wander what kind of material you are using in your CPU HSF?
There is nothing to shortcircuit. And if you are really paranoid you can always wrap electrical tape over it.
You really do have to give felinusz credit for that one...simple, but effective. In my opinion, it is just a little better than the rubber band because it elevates the fan for what I believe to be better air flow. The rubber band method on the other hand cannot be beat for simplicity.
I don't know if it has been shown here, but in one of the other threads a guy connected two 60mm fans together, then zip tied them to the fan on his XP-120, over hanging the ram. Perfect fit and also very easy and effective.
this is mine.

That's definitely a first, cooling ram with binder clips that is. Probably a bad idea.

lol thats nice TEDDY,
where did you get those zalman like fan holders??
cause i need to use them on my dual channel nforce 4 cause the other modds can`t cool both 2 and 4 slot, with just 1 fan, but seems with you cool method it can be donde very well

When i read this I feel honored!Look what I found on a german site:
That's quite extreme isn't it? I think this guy (his nick is ultron5 btw, i think he's also active here) wanted to run chilled water through this block.
Real "Deutsche Wertarbeit" (don't take me serious man)But I'm not Ultron from Kaltmacher.de! There you can find the original thread of the Ultron's RAM watercooler. But there also an interesting different idea of cooling the RAMs with water:
click here
Not nice as Ultron's watercooler but cheaper and I think more effectiv. After my exams I have enough time to made my own RAM watercooler. Stay tuned
Does anyone know how he connected the copper to the memory CHIP/IC?

He simply put pressure on the ICs with the help of the screws. He just put the copper on the right position and then he pull the screws on (I hope you can understand me). The whole modules carry the watercooler.
Then there can't be much pressure on the IC's... isn't there another way?

He wrote, that first he planned vertically screws between the modules, but then he saw, that they were unnecessary because the pressure was enough.

I don't have a digital camera (yet). So i thought I'd contribute by making a quick drawing. They're two 80mm fans lashed together with 4" cable ties. I then took two coat hangers and cut and bent them to size, and then strung the two hanger rods through the top fan holes. I then bent the ends into hooks and secured the fans so they hang from my case's (SX800) support beams and right over the RAM sticks.
EDIT: Oh yeah, forgot... this would work too if the RAM sticks were horizontal (DFI NF4). Simply putting one of the hanger rods through the bottom fan hole and re-arranging the fans so they hang horizontal.

i did this yesterday morning as i was bored.
top and sides are plexi with 40 or 50 mm delta's on them.
wire clips are wrapped with electrical tape to stop any shorts from happening.
the case is the areo cool spiral galaxy which is the almost copy of the silverstone TEMJIN SST-TJ06B
with the windtunnel in place i dont have so much room for large fans so i fond this route much more usefull.

Alright Brain, you don't like me, and I don't like you. But lets just do this, and I can get back to killing you with beer. -HJS-[/color][/size]
