oh, and how do you take the heatsink off RAM?(i know ONE way, just curious if there was a RIGHT way)

and, for the record, This is the wrong way..

[GI-JOE]

Ouch!

Wasn't your RAM under warranty? Why would you take off the heatsinks?

[XstollieX]

OOPs!! Note to self leave heatsinks on.

[Skippman]

YEEEOOUUCCCH!

Ripped the dang chips right off the PCB!

[Dragon_Cooler]

HAHAHAHH thats awesome!! That reminds me, I have my own processor heatsink removal pics that I need to get added. Oh soo funny!

[skier]

the sticks arent under warranty, i don't think, i dunno, i bought them from martini161 a year ago and they've been overclocked and overvolted every day of their life

I thought all ram had a lifetime warranty?

[skier]

Meh, the next RAM i'm gonna buy will be DDR3 anyways unless my current stick dies as well, with either a Phenom II X4 or an i7, i'm too much of a power user to stick with 2 cores, wayy too much encoding and compressing now

Unfortunately I don't see the pics, but it sounds like it looks bad o.o

Unfortunately I don't see the pics, but it sounds like it looks bad o.o

first four pics are memtest shots(one of which gave 58,000 errors in 28% of one pass, at all stock settings) and the latter 2 is the heatsinks being ripped off the sticks, taking the memory chips with them
