Which heatsinks for my Ram?

citycm · 11 Nov 2009 at 00:05

I have got some OCZ Reaper Ram and the heatsink has fallen off one of the sticks. Rather than spending £20 sending them back to the Netherlands, I was wondering if it would be better to just buy new heatsinks.

What would you recommend? (Heatsink wise).

I'm not too fussed about the fancy OCZ heatsinks so as long as they work well with the ram, it's fine.

Arctic Cooling RC RAM heatsinks are quite nice I think.

Any advice regarding attaching the current heatsinks? Is there some sort of glue I could use?

akasa thermal tape should work - linky

or thermal epoxy for a perminant fix @£12 - but you can make your own cheaper

But due to possable level differences I'd use the akasa stuff - £2 well spent.

Thanks, I'll give that a try
