Pelt cooling your RAM is unnecessary.

DDR RAM does not run that hot to start off with, and anyone who's actually tested RAM would tell you: even a heatsink has no/negligeable effect on performance.

You would have spent your money/time more wisely by simply getting faster RAM.

By Pelt-cooling your RAM, you've had to purchase:
-a power supply ($20)
-a Pelt ($20)
and you've spent an outrageous amount of time building a mount for it, which doesn't even extract heat evenly.

I'm sorry, but you're just wasting your time.
