Oh yeah I have that setup, in a K39. I've just checked it out because it interested me and according to the on-DIMM sensor, with a silent setup of 900RPM (NF-A12x15), ram temps went into the high 60's at 1.40V VDIMM (69°C @ 22°C ambient, during Karhu which is gonna be one of the hottest tasks for memory). That's pretty hot. At max RPM it stuck to 55°C.


I figure that during summer, this could legitimately lead to instability. I'm gonna decide to run higher fan speeds then.



I'd say that depends on how much of a real performance loss you'll see, but if those were my only sticks I'd personally pick a (presumably) longer lifespan over tight timings. But I know this takes a ton of effort yet again, which obviously sucks
