I'm in the process of ordering the final parts for this comp, and was wondering; this new OCZ VX Gold seems to be pretty good stuff according to Anandtech, but eats up 4v, and noticed in the Epox article that Morry recommended 'active cooling' (i assume by that case fans) at just 3.1v for DIMMs. This stuff has a heatsink on the sticks, but I'm putting a waterblock on the CPU and GPU powered by a Zalman Reserator, and specifically ordered a quiet PSU as well (Seasonic S12 500). With just the DIMMs, chipset fan, and two SATA drives, will I be needing more airflow you guys think then what the Seasonic PSU will pull out the top, considering 4v on the DIMMs?
