Peltier RAMsinks

Nope haven't seen any but I was wondering how cool it'd be to have lil 15 Watter's or even weaker on each IC??

Better idea but limited to 2 modules-use Artic Silver epoxy to attach 1 flat piece of copper plate to each module, then mount a peltier on the top, one facing forward and one backward, and a small CPU cooler.

Suicide is painless...........

RAM doesn't get THAT hot.... RDRAM might- but not SDRAM. Though, it might in the near future.

Well when you OC the RAM at some point it becomes unstable. I figured that if you lowered the temp to some ridiculous degree it might give some extra room to OC even further.

Well... sorta. It only works well with CPU's though. Still, there is a limit to CPU overclocking- even if it is 100c below. I once saw a celeron OC'd from 667mhz to 1Ghz and the CPU temp was -147C... after 1Ghz it wasn't stable. Everything has it's limits.

So, yes lowering the temp to a REALLY low degree does give more room for overclocking- but there's limits.

You saw that site with the Florinol experiment too? I would do it if 3M didn't charge so much for the Florinol.
