I've a Hynix 1GB DDR2 667 ram RAM timings r 5-5-5-15 and latency is 61.5ns.My mobo is Asus M2N-MX.I've OCed the ram to 800MHz and dere was no booting probs.PC ran stable even during gaming.At 800 RAM timin is 5-5-5-15 and latency is 51ns.My question is is will d RAM get damaged if i run it at 800MHZ?

^^Did you increase the voltage? If the voltage is less than 2-2.1V, there's no chance of damage. Above that, you'll need active cooling.

Voltage setting is at default setting.I ony inc the FSB.Is there any active cooling sol for RAM?If yes plz mention its cost and d name of the manufacturer.

Well...."active" cooling solutions are not very easily available....but just add a 80mm or 120mm fan to it....it shouldn't cost you much

Dude how do i add a fan near the RAM?I mean where shall i fix the fan????

Well you will have to make use of you modding skills for that..

..

Hints:Try Using Twin sided tape...
Try hanging it with a piece of wire, suspend it from the PSU wires...Stick it to the mobo heat sink..

Thnx 4 d idea dude.

@sam: I meant using a fan as active cooling

Here's how I did it
