(Subzero) ram cooling

[Somerandomtechyboi]

Basically searching for cheap ways to get my extreem dark ddr2 colder and push past 1520 7-9-6-9 (2.38v) cause rn its thermally limited and 1520 runs stable only if i got 2 fans over the rams, and its gotta be something that can run consistently for awhile without having to maintain it or lose effectiveness overtime like ice water

 

 

First idea is making some sort of tec cooler by attatching some heatspreaders to the rams that will then be attatched to a coldplate with the tec, basically just normal closed top heatspreaders but a metal plate + tec ontop of em

 

Second idea is chilling the board pcb around the ram slots with a tec, maybe the colder the pcb area around the ram slots the colder the rams get

 

Third idea is just ambient cooling the rams with a waterbucket and waterblocks

 

 

I do know the proper way of doing this is just ram waterblocks + waterchiller but thats a tad expensive .-.

 

 

Which of these ideas work the best for lowest temp?

 

Any better ideas than this?

 

And may aswell add how am i gonna insulate the ram slot itself?

Save your money and buy some newer hardware.

Im just trying to push my ddr2 for fun, not neccesarily for performance if it isnt obvious by aida saying my read speed is 6400 when at 1470 7-9-6-9 auto subtimings it reaches 10400 read speed

do you 3d print? seem like you would learn just to make something might be an idea. i think there fairly cheap now like $200

What can i even use that for here?

 

Mounting should be sorted as ill just gravity mount or use silicone as a good enough adhesive

well im bring it because you like to do things cheap and 3d printing is farly cheap. im shur you will come up with ideas with what to print. plus you can sell your prints too to make moeny to then buy a ram water block and pay for the 3d printer in the first place. i dont no just a suggestion.

 

i dont no if your poor or just frugal with your moeny

Now im interested

 

Maybe if i ever get a 3d printer i can use it to make money, but i doubt id have much use for it just personal use cause zipties and silicone go brrrrrrrrr

you could 3d print zipties....i kid but hey...
