Copper Heat Spreader for Memory sticks
Does anyone know if these copper or aluminum covers to spread out and reduce the heat on the memory sticks work or necessary?

If you are overclocking they are a good idea but you can make them cheaper than you can buy them.

I've never used them, and I've never had a memory problem that could even remotely be traced to overheating. I also don't overclock things...
