water is the way to go. its thermal conductivity is far superior to air. i have hooked a thermatake pump to the CPU fan output of the motherboard - found that the CPU and 8800GT gfx is cool with only a dribble of water. there is no need to have a high flow rate pump in my experience. you may be able...

What type of water-cooling do you use? If you have an entirely external radiator, you still need to have at least a single slow case fan installed to cool off all the random little chips in the system (the RAM probably isn't the hottest thing in there if you feel around). i have built a custom case...

Water Cooled Ram
Hi all i have just installed a water cooled system into my computer. trouble is now, the RAM is too hot to touch! I suspect the CPU fan was providing enough airflow to keep things cool in the past. I don't overclock the ram, but it is 1066 DDR2. so it is naturally quite fast and hot. i have found a ...
