Hi,

I just ordered new RAMs for me (G.Skill Trident X 16GB 2400mhz) & considering they will be used on that speed - 2400mhz, will they require cooling? Do I need this? http://www.amazon.com/G-Skill-Turbulence-Memory-Cooling-3500rpm/dp/B0041G211U/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1385618646&sr=1-1&keywords=G.SKILL+Turbulence+II+memory+fan

Hell, even the heat spreaders you see are more looks than function. RAM coolers are just a waste of money unless you're doing some sort of psychotic overclock.
