Just using someone else's image after noticing it. What's that metallic piece that's hovering around the area where the RAM sticks are? A heat sink? |

Its an OCZ memory fan cooler. Far better than the corsair one.

??? Where's the fan? Is it the fan that's on the left?
In which case if that fan is meant for the memory. Where's the CPU fan then? Unless of course the fan meant for memory is UNDER that metallic piece (which would be odd then cause supposedly it's the other way around right? Heat sinks first then a fan above that?) Either way, it definitely looks better than the Corsair one, maybe I should request them to add that instead of the Corsair one since you said it's superior, for a little extra charge ahaha.

Also the memory fan sucks air through the holes and blows it onto your memory.

It uses 2 larger fans instead of the 3 smaller fans in the corsair module. From past reviews I've read, the OCZ cooler also has blue LEDs, but this may have changed. |

Hey that's my memory fan cooler! And yes, if you keep looking where you found that pic there is another pic of it turned on, you can see the Blue LED's inside the cooler it looks awesome!
I think the OCZ memory fan cooler is much better than the corsair one. |
