The vram is cooled by the heatsink, already attached to the card. To get another cooler for the memory modules alone would mean removing the cooler already on there, Any reason you wanted to get a cooler for it?

This is what your after if you do not already have one.

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Gelid-Rev-2-ICY-Vision-Enhancement-KIT-for-AMD-R9-290-290X-Board-CL-R9290-01-A-/390871794540

I bought this to cool my VRM1's when I got my KrakenG10 and it works WONDERS!

90-100*c (sometimes up to 106*c on a hot summers day) without it using a Naked VRM1 under the included Kraken fan.

70-80*c with it installed.

Some games don't even push it that far.

 

I also didn't even use the heatsinks for VRM2 as mine were staying at 72*c.

VRM1 is the most important,.. and that Gelid 290/X heatsink and the included G10 fan,.. has it performing brilliantly.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz

I'm not actually sure of the dimensions,.. but it's a perfect fit with it's own mounting screws anyway... It's made for the 290/290X specifically.
