How to DIY Your 1st Ram Cooler!
Step 1:
Cut half away from both sides of the HDD Cooler, its to shorten the height of the would be Ram Cooler

use the common thin ones will do.

Step 6:
- Make sure u have 4 sticks of Rams on ur Mobo
- Estimate to make sure ur Ram Cooler is in the Center of ur Rams
- Press ur Foam on both sides of Ram to leave a Pressure Mark

Step 8: Complete!
Fix any 40mm Fan on the Cooler, max of 3 if if needed, Originally have 2 but i lost it. Used a Single 40mm fan as Demo:

Ur own DIY Ram Cooler!
Ur Ram Cooler will not fall off even when mobo is upright as the Foam is holding on to the Rams
*Thats why i choose High Density Foam*

The hdd cooler looks like like a "JustCooler", really old-school! I have several lying around too, great idea! Save $$$ on an OCZ cooler instead.
