System RAM blocks?

OK, so i currently have watercooling for my Mushkin PC3500 LVLII ram. I need two more blocks, cause I'm getting another ram stick to run in dual channel. Anybody know where I can get something like this? The current watercooling increased my FSB by 15, so it's not worth dual channel if I have to back down to non-watercooled speeds.
 
my guess is that you'd have to make it or have somebody do it for you, because i've only seen watercooled ram one other time and that was on overclockers.com. so. i don't think that it'd be sold anywhere. where'd you get your current ram waterblock?

also, would two of them fit on the motherboard? i think that'd be a big problem, given the proximity of the ram slots on a motherboard. you could try just putting a 92mm fan over the ram and see how that works if you can't find another waterblock.

and in all honesty, the speed increase from doubling your memory will almost definitely make up for the 15fsb you might lose, even without dual channel.

good luck tho.
 
Yeah I bought it here on FS/T.
It does actually not help a whole lot for me to go from 512 to 1024, I've got some BH5 that I used and it's cool, but not great.
I need that waterblock cause it'll help look cool and run dual. I've got the space for it.
 
youll gain a lot more from moving to a gig than having a few extra mhz on the ram
