    Posted: 18 Nov 2009 at 5:10pm
    When they say "chip set" just how many chips and which one's are LC with the new Stage 6 Dual Loop CPU, dual GPU and "Chip Set". I see 2 radiators but don't know which or how many the "chip set " entails. Also can I get the RAM fans with red LED's?
Thanks For Any Info

by chipset they are talking about the water block for the mobo.

no you can't get red led for ram fans, they don't make any and DS won't change them. if you find one let me know, I'm looking for one also.

Just what I need, do you know if the 60mm red fans is a direct replacment? Will it fit on the frame of the ones you get from DS for RAM cooling?

they are standard 60mm fans. you will have to wire them together, and put them on the mobo fan header, and run them at a bit slower than max, cause they are loud little suckers wide open

you can't swap those, looked into that already, the original fans are 60 x 15, these are 60 x 25, I had found a nice orange 60mm pair for swap few months ago but then found out the originals are not as wide.

Would it be possible to not get the RAM fan option and then buy from another source online that would fit the RAM with little needed mods. Who sells RAM fan kits that install easily on the DS system?

Do you think these would work on any RAM or would you need Corsair RAM? They have no RED LED's which is what I want, but they do have some red paint on them, might do in a pinch.

the ones designed for triple RAM setups will all fit. the OCZ ones should fit the red led fans with no mods.

I don't think they will fit, the fan is gonna be lower and can hit the ram itself, how much clearance is there between the 60 x 15 and the ram from the bottom of the fan to the top of the ram? if there is room then it should work but I was told by a DS tech that it won't work.
