comment Commentsprint Printemail EmailDeliciousDiggStumbleUponRedditFacebookSlashdot

Worried your RAM might go up flames from the extra voltage you're pumping through? You can worry a little less with OCZ's XTC (Xtreme Thermal Convection) Memory Cooler Revision 2, the latest in a limited field of active RAM coolers.

"The first revision of the OCZ XTC Memory Cooler proved to be a very popular product with a wide range of enthusiast and power users," said Ryan Edwards, Director of Product Management for OCZ. "We are excited to offer a follow-up design with improved performance, an enhanced feature set, and a sleek new look, all at the same affordable price point as the original."

Made of brushed aluminum, OCZ's newest XTC cooler installs over the top of your RAM modules by snapping into your motherboard's DIMM socket retention levels. Two 60mm fans provide airflow for your memory, and according to OCZ, a new, taller profile means you can use the second revision XTC cooler with memory kits sporting taller heatsinks. Fan speed is adjustable (low or high), and of course tricked out with blue LEDs.

Why does everything have to have LEDs on it, I am over that phase, I would rather have no LEDs so I can sleep at night with the computer on.

spray paint the entire unit, fans & all black. now there won't be any glowy shiny lights at night. don't RAM heatsinks do enough of a job already? i guess if you OC your PC, the extra fans might help out a bunch.
