I just ordered a Dominator air cooler from performance pcs. My OCZ memory has been running a bit warm lately in my case since there isn't any airflow around the DIMMs. I will also be using dominator memory in my next build so it'll be nice to have a matching fan.
 
I am looking at ways to improve case airflow because my case only has two fans. The antec spot cool looks very interesting as well, only thing is it has a bright blue LED. They can be had for about $20 shipped.
 
Just beware of that Antec Spot Cool. It is MUCH bigger than it looks and personally I think the arm it sits on isn't long enough. I bought one to cool my northbridge between my video card and CPU and there was no way in hell it was going to fit in that gap. I have a Zalman CNPS9700 turned vertically so the air is flowing out the top of my case. There was a fair amount of room there, or so I thoguht. It would be useful only for areas over your motherboard with lots of room like above RAM and below your video cards. Also be aware that depending on the screws that fasten your motherboard to your backing plate, it may actually mean the screws don't have enough thread to hold onto, and therefore, you can't even attach the spot cool to your motherboard. :eek:

All these things happened in my case. Enjoy!
