Dude, you're using tracer, what do you expect?
Try a ballistix non tracer, then you'll see the differences in themal performance dude. laugh.gif

Come come sell your tracer and buy ballistix 4gb from me. tongue.gif

Reaper offcourse. Because the heatsink for reaper is bigger.
However, in terms of overclockability, Crucial wins.

Sorry, missed out this reply earlier biggrin.gif I didn't know that few LED's would cause so much of problems. If only I know the non-Tracers are a lot cooler, I would've bought that.
Btw, no $$$ to get 4GB. Got easy payment like Sen Heng? laugh.gif

The tracers were hot because if you look properly under the heatspreader, you'll see the differences between ballistix and ballistix tracer. Owh wait, you didn't have the non tracer. Hmm..

Owh well, i'll just explain.
Okay, Tracers are hot not because of the LED's.
Tracer high heat is caused by the LED Controller chip on the middle of the ram.

Take out your ram and you'll see a chip on the middle of the ram.
Ballistix doesn't have that. Only ballistix tracer has that chip.

Dude, my advice, don't buy the OCZ XTC.
It's crap. Real crap. The Vizo Armada that u're using right now is alot better than the OCZ XTC.

Trust me, it's proven.
The OCZ XTC may look better than the Vizo Armada, but in real world performance, it's not. smile.gif

Just sell it back.
Have you ever wondered why most OCZ XTC stays in less than 1 week with it's original owner?
Google around the Garage Sales and look for those that sells OCZ XTC and ask them how old is thier OCZ XTC.
You'll find out that they use it in a very short time.

Don't bother asking them about performance because offcourse they'll praise because they want to sell it.
But in real world performance, it's super crap.

The OCZ XTC weakness isn't just about the noise.
It's the airflow too.

The airflow is too weak for a ram active cooling that big.
Even the Vizo Armada can beat it.

Offcoruse, Vizo Armada isn't the best.
The best is still the AllnGap Dual 60MM Ram Cooler. thumbup.gif

You don't have to do a review to know how it performs.
I know how does it perform just by looking at it's build.

I may not say this a lot, but if you don't believe me, ask csktl1, he's a real ram expert, both overclocking and cooling.
He himself bought an OCZ XTC, he use it for only 15 minutes and gave it to other people for free. Why? Because it's crap. Pure crap.

One my point you must know, Good brand doesn't mean it'll always build good products.
Sometime, it's more to marketing strategy. And that OCZ XTC is one of their marketing strategy.

OCZ XTC may be the best looking Active Cooling for ram, but in performance, honestly, it's the worse.
Even worse than the Vizo Armada.

Bro shawty bad news la....not just this xtc performance sucks in wont even fit into my casing ha..ha..ha.. laugh.gif my bad didn't measure first

Guys, look at these sweet ram heatspreaders.
IMO, It's even better than Thermalright HR-07.

Someone is bulking it right now at uber cheap prices.

@shawty,

what do you think about the performance
between Corsair dominator airflow VS OCZ XTC VS Vizo Armada?
in terms of performance , later by it's look.

That's easy.
The Corsair Dominator Airflow wins in the battle of the three you mentioned. In terms of performance.
Vizo armada goes to 2nd place.

In tems of aesthetics, offcourse the OCZ XTC wins, but you wouldn't want to sacrifice performance just for the sake of making your rig beautiful right?

But then, nothing can beat our own legendary AllnGap Dual 60MM Ram Cooler. thumbup.gif
