Synthohol Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 they are not required however if you put an inline fan controller on them it would sure help. ie: http://www.amazon.com/Zalman-Fanmate-2-Speed-Controller-Retail/dp/B000292DO0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G50EED Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 hi i have just bought 12bg of corsair dominator and got the fans to go with them, they are quite noisey so do i have to use them? will the memory get damaged? thanks mark "No" and "no". I had that same issue with the fans in my last build and I just tossed them out. No problem. If you really need assurance, just run the PC with your hand on the DIMMs under load and see just how hot (or not) they get. Lastly, check Corsair's current product line up. You'll see not all similarly rated DIMMs (even within the Dominator line up) come with fans. If I'm not mistaken, none of the quad-channel kits do.
