Well as some may know I was getting that nvlddmkm error; as well as a few weird things; so it was suggested by DS to switch out the memory sticks; which I have done.  Now I narrowed it down to 2 sticks; that whenever those sticks are in; either one of them I get some type of weird happening; be it an error/issue, etc.  So now only 2 of my 4 sticks are in.
 
But what Im wondering is that could it just be a cooling issue for the Memory.  I did do that memory test; granted I did it for only 4 hrs but it didnt find any errors.  When I was switching those sticks around they were damn hot!! So now I am wondering if it could be a Cooling Issue.
 
So here are my questions:  If it is a memory cooling issue are the sticks permanently damaged or could the issues be resolved with that Fan for the Corsair Sticks?
 
Also I've been doing some reading about the Dominator sticks and maybe DS should require that a Fan be purchased for the sticks; Im wondering if it would eliminate most RMA's.  I know the percentage is low; but if it could be even lower by adding a $25.00 fan isnt it worth it for both the Buyer & DS?  I dont see most buyers having a problem adding an extra $25.00 for the Fan if it is needed?
