Is it stable? I'm using Kingston value RAM 2GB 667MHz CL5, the default voltage is at 1.xx(forgot) but since I overclock my processor, the RAM is also be overclocked, and my mobo automatic set the Memory voltage to 2.1v. Is it ok? Will my RAM be burned? I runned prime95 for 23 hours without problems.

Active cooling is better for long time usage.
And, Past Tense of run = ran.  No hard feeling.-pWs- |

you need active cooling for your ram...like corsair dominator airflow 3 fan something like that...to cool down your chip... |

A cooler will do. You can use it w/o active cooling but IMO, not recommended.

it should be 1.8V stock..
I think you should put some heatspreader..just get a cheap one.. I'm also using those value rams, 800MHz.. but for prolong use, better back down the V lil bit IMO.. last time I managed to get 880Mhz @ 2.0V with it.. |
