So I have a strange Question here. I have been looking for ram for a bit now for my new build. I am slowly getting the parts  I need and have seen the new Corsair Vengeance pro ram. I have noticed that the shape is very similar to that of the corsair dominator platinum. Does anyone know if the coolers for dominator platinum will fit on these or not. I have been looking at different forums and web pages all morning and can't find anything about the compatibility. I know a ram cooler isn't going to be completely necessary in my build but i love the look of ram waterblocks in certain builds and I think it would work for mine. thanks in advance.

RAM doesn't need to be actively cooled unless you're pushing 3+GHz.

no because the dominators have screw holes in the pcb that the pros don't have and I wouldn't try to add them.

Thank you very much for the time. I was hoping that they did and I just didnt see them.

sadly no the vengeance pro just has a basic heatsink over it and the dominator has a more complicated heatsink.

do you know of any ram other than dominator tha tyou can get the waterblock for. i know that they are definately not needed i just like the look and with my new build being inside of a caselabs st10 case it has all the room in the world and with a watercooled mobo, processor ram and video card it should look rather beastly. if you know of any i am open to ideas. I just dont want to spend that much money on ram 399 and up is a bit steep

 Why do you want a waterblock for the RAM? It doesn't run that hot to need one and you're unnecessarily making the water loop more complex.

I like the look of it. I know that I won't need them as I'm not going to overclock them to their max just a mild overclock. the ram would be a small run between the cpu and mobo blocks in some way not sure yet how im going to run the tubing but i like the look of it.
