so i tore apart some old pc's took the heatsink/fan from the CPU and replaced the stock ones. Running 1 stick at 325Mhz and .75v. going to drop the voltage down 1-2v. if i had a couple of smaller heatsinks i would run them at 400Mhz. The fans are running off an old AT power supply. i left the switch attached so i can turn off the fans with a button push.

Interesting... can i/we get a screenshot of that? I'm kind of picturing a fat ass cpu heatsink ducttaped to the stick, with the stick upside down and a USB cord extender. Also if you put such a big heatsink on it, i don't think the chip could generate enough heat to warm up the heatsink much, so passive would work great, right?
